challenging sad medium-paced

1.0

A star for the organization and the way the content was laid out for the reader. Negative a million stars for the ways corrections has negatively affected vulnerable populations in this country, founded to its very roots with racism, ableism and sexism.

The only thing this book (and subsequently, the class it was associated with) made clear for me is that the Angela Davis was and continues to be correct: prisons are obsolete. Social transformation is the way forward.
