As the United States celebrates the nation's "triumph over race" with the election of Barack Obama, the majority of young black men in major American cities are locked behind bars or have been labeled felons for life. Although Jim Crow laws have been wiped off the books, an astounding percentage of the African American community remains trapped in a subordinate status - much like their grandparents before them. In this incisive critique, former litigator-turned-legal-scholar Michelle Alexander provocatively argues that we have not ended racial caste in America: we have simply redesigned it. Alexander shows that, by targeting black men and decimating communities of color, the U.S. criminal justice system functions as a contemporary system of racial control, even as it formally adheres to the principle of color blindness. The New Jim Crow challenges the civil rights community - and all of us - to place mass incarceration at the forefront of a new movement for racial justice in America.  aENH 0aDiscrimination in criminal justice administrationzUnited States.928327 0aCriminal justice, Administration ofzUnited States.928328 0aAfrican American prisonerszUnited States.928329 0aAfrican American menxSocial conditions.928330 0aRace discriminationzUnited States.928331 0aEnglish language.942961 7aAfrican American menxSocial conditions.2fast928330 7aAfrican American prisoners.2fast928332 7aCriminal justice, Administration of.2fast928333 7aDiscrimination in criminal justice administration.2fast928334 7aRace discrimination.2fast928335 7aRace relations.2fast928336 7aAdministration of criminal justicezUnited States.2sears928337 7aAfrican AmericanszUnited States.2sears928338 7aPrisonerszUnited States.2sears928339 7aRace discriminationzUnited States.2sears928331 0aUnited StatesxRace relations.928340 7aUnited States.2fast928341 7aUnited StatesxRace relations.2sears9283401 aWest, Cornel,ewriter of foreword928342  aAyesha Abed LibrarycGeneral Stacks  2ddccBK  00102ddc4070aBRACULbBRACULcGENd2018-09-24eTrim Educationg1895.00l0o364.973 ALEp3010033833r2018-09-24t1v1895.00w2018-09-24yBK
