The New Jim Crow

The New Jim Crow, written by Michelle Alexander and narrated by Karen Chilton, explores the resurgence of a caste-like system in the United States, focusing on how the criminal justice system has impacted African American communities. Challenging assumptions about racial progress, the book reveals how policies like the War on Drugs have contributed to a form of racial control that persists today. Recognized as a significant work on race and social justice, it calls for critical reflection and action on systemic inequality.
