The new Jim Crow : mass incarceration in the age of colorblindness
(Book)

"With a new foreword by Cornel West"--Cover.

Includes bibliographic references and index.

This is a revised, 10th anniversary edition. This book has been cited in judicial decisions, read in countless faith-based and secular book clubs, and adopted in campus-wide and community-wide reads. Most important, it has inspired artists, philanthropists, policymakers, community leaders, and a whole generation of racial justice activists. This is a searing indictment of our criminal justice system, demonstrating that racial inequality and discrimination continue in America, through the process of jailing blacks rather than forcing them to the back of the bus.
