Book Title and Author: The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness by Michelle Alexander
Book Description: "The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness" by Michelle Alexander is a seminal work that examines the intricate and systemic racial discrimination present in the United States' criminal justice system. Through meticulous research and compelling arguments, Alexander illustrates how the War on Drugs and mass incarceration have functioned as a contemporary system of racial control, akin to the Jim Crow laws of the early 20th century.
The book is structured to guide the reader through a historical, sociological, and legal analysis of the criminal justice system, highlighting how policies ostensibly designed to be race-neutral have disproportionately impacted African Americans. Alexander argues that mass incarceration has effectively created a racial caste system, where millions of black Americans are subject to legal discrimination, disenfranchisement, and social exclusion.
