Synopsis
This book is a thought-provoking analysis and documentation of the hardship the prison industrial complex imposes on individuals, families and communities of color in the United States. The author, a highly acclaimed expert on the field, has produced a work which challenges the conventional wisdom and the very foundations of the criminal justice system, the war on drugs, and mass incarceration in the so-called 'land of the free'. Grounded in an impressive array of data and poignant personal accounts, the book lifts the veil on the mechanisms that perpetuate systemic racism and social injustice. This is a powerful and deeply unsettling work from one of America's most eminent legal scholars. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the nature of contemporary mass incarceration, its consequences, and potential solutions.
