An Analysis of Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow

Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness

Beschreibung

The United States has the world's largest prison population, with more than two million behind bars. Alexander says this is mainly due to America's 'war on drugs,' launched in 1982. In The New Jim Crow, she explains how this government initiative has led to America's black citizens being imprisoned on a colossal scale.
