“The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Color\u00a0Blindness”<\/h3>\n

by Michelle Alexander<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\n\"The<\/a>\n<\/div>\n
\nThe New Jim Crow\u00a0is a stunning account of the rebirth of a caste-like system in the United States, one that has resulted in millions of African Americans locked behind bars and then relegated to a permanent second-class status\u2014denied the very rights supposedly won in the Civil Rights Movement.\u00a0As the United States celebrates its \u201ctriumph over race\u201d with the election of Barack Obama, the majority of black men in major urban areas are under correctional control or saddled with criminal records for life. Jim Crow laws were wiped off the books decades ago, but today an extraordinary percentage of the African American community is warehoused in prisons or trapped in a parallel social universe, denied basic civil and human rights\u2014including the right to vote; the right to serve on juries; and the right to be free of legal discrimination in employment, housing, access to education and public benefits.<\/p>\n
