Description

A graphic retelling of the exponential growth of the US prison system, exploring its impact on communities of colour. Marc Mauer's expert analysis is brought to life through Sabrina Jones' dramatic artwork, adding passion and compassion to the story of mass incarceration's devastating effects. The book presents a compelling argument about the failed social policy that has led to one in three black males and one in six Latino males born today facing prison time. With a foreword by Michelle Alexander, this graphic narrative sheds light on the interplay between punishment, the "War on Drugs," and the corrosive impact on American society. A powerful exploration of a pressing issue, Race to Incarcerate: A Graphic Retelling is a worthwhile read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of mass incarceration.
