Michelle Alexander does a great job in presenting factual information in a clear, readable manner. She keeps the tone informative yet manages to impress the urgency of the situation for those who caught in this caste system and though she does assign responsibility she doesn't assess blame-- It's an important book and I thank Carleen for allowing me to read and review it.Cheri Paris Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08745077028326230312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7908605519309482853.post-88941423914561233672011-06-10T07:41:24.461-06:002011-06-10T07:41:24.461-06:00I recently read Are Prisons Obsolete by Angela Dav...I recently read Are Prisons Obsolete by Angela Davis that discusses some of the same things.

I've put The New Jim Crow on hold at the library and can't wait for it to arrive. Thanks for bringing this one to my attention. :)Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703372903532502944noreply@blogger.com
