Synopsis
Once in a great while a book comes along that changes the way we see the world and helps to fuel a nationwide social movement. The New Jim Crow is such a book. Praised by Harvard Law professor Lani Guinier as "brave and bold," this book directly challenges the notion that the election of Barack Obama signals a new era of colorblindness. With dazzling candor, legal scholar Michelle Alexander argues that "we have not ended racial caste in America; we have merely redesigned it." By targeting black men through the War on Drugs and decimating communities of color, the U.S. criminal justice system functions as a contemporary system of racial control--relegating millions to a permanent second-class status--even as it formally adheres to the principle of colorblindness. In the words of Benjamin Todd Jealous, president and CEO of the NAACP, this book is a "call to action." Called "stunning" by Pulitzer Prize-winning historian David Levering Lewis, "invaluable" by the Daily Kos , "explosive" by Kirkus , and "profoundly necessary" by the Miami Herald , this updated and revised paperback edition of The New Jim Crow , now with a foreword by Cornel West, is a must-read for all people of conscience., Once in a great while a book comes along that changes the way we see the world and helps to fuel a nationwide social movement.

Yet, as legal star Alexander reveals, today it is perfectly legal to discriminate against convicted criminals in nearly all the ways that it was once legal to discriminate against African Americans.

- 2***4 (168)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.6 derniers moisAchat vérifiéGot the TV series combat, season 2 volume one from the seller and they shipped it out fast and well wrapped up for the journey. It arrived earlier than listed and in the condition they listed it as being. This is not a series easy to find out side of complete box set yet alone for the great price they sold it for. The seller showed great communication and I'd buy from them again without question. Good series and good seller.

- a***g (15)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéI just wanted to write a great review on this seller. I am a broke college student, I found this cheaper elsewhere but originally bid on a cheaper price, which automatically charged my card. But the seller was super amazing, it shipped fast, my refund was fast, and if I need any older books I can't find elsewhere locally here, I would order from this person even if it didn't work this time, it would for a future order. The book was in good condition, packed great across country, as described.
