- Description or summary of the audiobook: Once in a great while a book comes along that changes the way we see the world and helps to fuel a nationwide social movement. The New Jim Crow is such a book. Praised by Harvard Law professor Lani Guinier as 'brave and bold,' this book directly challenges the notion that the presidency of Barack Obama signals a new era of colorblindness. With dazzling candor, legal scholar Michelle Alexander argues that 'we have not ended racial caste in America; we have merely redesigned it.' By targeting black men through the War on Drugs and decimating communities of color, the U.S. criminal justice system functions as a contemporary system of racial control-relegating millions to a permanent second-class status-even as it formally adheres to the principle of colorblindness. In the words of Benjamin Todd Jealous, president and CEO of the NAACP, this book is a 'call to action.' Called 'stunning' by Pulitzer Prize-winning historian David Levering Lewis, 'invaluable' by the Daily Kos, 'explosive' by Kirkus, and 'profoundly necessary' by the Miami Herald, The New Jim Crow is a must-read for all people of conscience.
