Recommendation: The New Jim Crow is a must-read for anyone interested in social justice and understanding how the American justice system has perpetuated racism against African Americans through mass incarceration. Michelle Alexander's concise and well-researched account of how the War on Drugs targeted black men, subsequently leaving them to face a lifetime of disenfranchisement and discrimination is an argument well-worth considering. The evidence Alexander presents is powerful, the narrative is clear and concise, and her call to action will leave readers inspired to join the fight for justice.
