The New Jim Crow pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
The New Jim Crow was initially published with a modest first printing and reasonable expectations for a hard-hitting book on a tough topic. Now, ten-plus printings later, the long-awaited paperback version of the book Lani Guinier calls "brave and bold," and Pulitzer Prize–winner David Levering Lewis calls "stunning," will at last be available.
In the era of colorblindness, it is no longer socially permissible to use race, explicitly, as a justification for discrimination, exclusion, and social contempt. Yet, as legal star Michelle Alexander reveals, today it is perfectly legal to discriminate against convicted criminals in nearly all the ways that it was once legal to discriminate against African Americans. Once you're labeled a felon, the old forms of discrimination—employment discrimination, housing discrimination, denial of the right to vote, denial of educational opportunity, denial of food stamps and other public benefits, and exclusion from jury service—are suddenly legal.
Featured on The Tavis Smiley Show, Bill Moyers Journal, Democracy Now, and C-Span's Washington Journal, The New Jim Crow has become an overnight phenomenon, sparking a much-needed conversation—including a recent mention by Cornel West on Real Time with Bill Maher&mdas;about ways in which our system of mass incarceration has come to resemble systems of racial control from a different era.
A longtime civil rights advocate and litigator, Michelle Alexander won a 2005 Soros Justice Fellowship and now holds a joint appointment at the Moritz College of Law and the Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity at Ohio State University. Alexander served for several years as the director of the Racial Justice Project at the ACLU of Northern California, which spearheaded the national campaign against racial profiling. At the beginning of her career she served as a law clerk on the United States Supreme Court for Justice Harry Blackmun. She lives outside Columbus, Ohio.

评分最后一章很感动
评分Instant classic! As devastating as the strange career of Jim Crow, and as aspiring as up from Slavery. Did a perfect job in helping us understand the perpetuation of the American racial caste, yet the helping us change challenge is still there to be burdened.
评分从来没有以此种角度观察过美国的毒品犯罪。但是,对于这些年来黑人在各种斗争中的英勇表现及其取得的显著性成果,深表震撼。假如我经过黑人兄弟时的内心戏依然是紧张,这份刻板印象就为被打破。很多事都不是一朝一夕,一蹴而就的。很喜欢作者激情洋溢的序言部分。如果不是很深的感情是写不出这样的文字的。
评分exemplary work.
