Locking Up Our Own: Crime and Punishment in Black America by James Forman Jr.

5.0

This was one of the most wonderful books I’ve ever read on public policy and how it directly affected the War on Drugs/Mass Incarceration. This book was heavily nuanced and the detail in it felt perfectly dense. It read as a lecture rather than a textbook! I truly felt like I learned so much and even found myself crying at times. A must read!!!
