The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness by Michelle Alexander

challenging emotional informative sad slow-paced

5.0

The content in this is heavy. It’s not heavy in terms of graphic content but heavy in the sense of how much injustice and racism has existed long before the United States even became a nation in the first place. It took me a longer time than usual to absorb the words. I felt a jumble of emotions as I was reminded of the countless unnecessary deaths of Black and Brown individuals who had done nothing wrong except to exist on a planet that is against them.
