Prison Nation- Angela Davis

"Racism continues to play a determining role in who gets stopped by the police in the United States and who doesn't. It determines who gets arrested and who goes free, who gets convicted and who is acquitted, who gets longer sentences and who gets shorter sentences. The United States is a prison nation, with more of its citizens incarcerated than China and Russia combined.”
