Listen Later

Even 10 years after publication, the systemic issues that Alexander expertly navigates throughout her book remain among the most problematic and unresolved challenges in unjust political and economic systems in the USA. This book has been cited in judicial decisions and has been adopted in campus-wide and community-wide reads; in the United States, it helped inspire the creation of the Marshall Project and the new $100 million Art for Justice Fund; it has been the winner of numerous prizes, including the prestigious NAACP Image Award; and it has spent nearly 250 weeks on the New York Times best seller list. Audiobook narrated by Karen Chilton.
