Description
Join us for a Special Topics Discussion group, focused on the book The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness, written by author Michelle Alexander. The book is a stunning account of the birth of a caste-like system in the US, one that has resulted in millions of African Americans locked behind bars amd then relegated to a permanent second-class status- denied the very rights supposedly won in the Civil Rights Movement. Participants are asked to read the book prior to joining the discussion group lead by the Los Angeles OASIS, known as Club WISE.
