“I also believed—and I still believe—that the prevailing view that mass incarceration has been driven by arrests and convictions for violent crime is simply wrong. It is a lie that has been invoked to excuse and rationalize the intentional infliction of suffering on millions of people.”
― Michelle Alexander, The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness
