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

challenging dark informative sad medium-paced

4.0

I'm glad I finally got to read this after having it on my shelf for so long. It's an important political touchstone for a reason. Well reasoned and well researched. It's amazing how the impact of this book has been felt in the last few years, to the point where this book almost seems not to go far enough, since discussions of abolition are more mainstream. Still, very foundational.
