In 'The New Jim Crow', author Michelle Alexander explores the racial disparities within the American criminal justice system. She argues that the system perpetuates a form of racial control and oppression, similar to the Jim Crow laws of the past. Alexander's book sheds light on the disproportionate incarceration rates of Black Americans and the systemic barriers they face upon release. This thought-provoking book challenges readers to critically examine the intersection of race, crime, and justice in America.
