A review by texcajunlibrarian
Live from Death Row by Mumia Abu-Jamal

5.0

This collection of writings is remarkably relevant even 25 years after publication. Mumia is incredibly talented at conveying the intricacies of prison, racism, and society. He eloquently argued many of the hot topics of today's criminal justice discourse decades before they became part of mainstream discussions. I highly recommend this book both for it's accessibility, insight, and a view of how the prison industrial complex and criminal justice system has evolved over the last 30 years.
