More about the book

Mass incarceration in the United States has led to over 2.5 million individuals being confined in facilities that far exceed their intended capacity. The resulting prison conditions are not only overcrowded but also degrading, heavily relying on violent gang dynamics, frequent lockdowns, and extreme segregation methods to manage inmate populations. This situation highlights the failures of current penal policies, revealing them to be both financially burdensome and ineffective in achieving rehabilitation or safety.
