ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander explores the systemic racial inequalities embedded in the U.S. criminal justice system. The book argues that mass incarceration functions as a modern racial caste system, disproportionately affecting African Americans and other people of color, particularly through the War on Drugs. Alexander examines how legal and social systems perpetuate discrimination, stripping individuals of their civil rights and relegating them to a permanent underclass. Using historical context, the book highlights the parallels between mass incarceration, slavery, and Jim Crow laws, urging readers to recognize and challenge the pervasive racial injustice still present today.
