All cops are bad, but where did carceral violence start, and what can we do about it? Tommie Shelby understands our country's history of mass incarceration, inhumane conditions, privatized prisons, and "the new Jim Crow." In his book The Idea of Prison Abolition, the philosopher and current chair of the Department of African and African American Studies at Harvard University explores possibilities for prison reform and abolition.
