This review is from: States of Confinement: Policing, Detention, and Prisons (Hardcover)
Joy James has collected a great group of essays from engaged academics and thoughtful activists dealing with a wide range of issues related to the prison-industrial complex. The best way to convey the content is probably to list some of the essays: * Robbie Meeropol, "Testimony" (of a Rosenberg son) * Dan Williams, lawyer for Mumia, on the case * Manning Marable, "Black Radicalism & an Economy of Incarceration" * Angela Davis, "From Convict Lease System to Super-Max" * Adrien King, "Black Women & Gangs" * Luana Ross, "Imprisoned Notive Women & Importance of Native Tradition" * Alexandra Suh, "Military Prostitution in Asia & U.S." * Gabriel Torres & David Love, "Militarization of Police in U.S." * Gary Marx, "The New Surveillance" * Jose Lopez, "Political Incarceration" * Donna Willmott, "Time to Bring our Political Prisoners Home" * Judi Bari, "Earth First! & FBI" * and a dozen more

4.0 out of 5 stars Cover Art, March 26, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: States of Confinement: Policing, Detention, and Prisons (Hardcover)
The reason I picked up States of Confinement was because of its cover art. The powerful front piece was amazing and it went hand and hand with the powerful essays contained in the book. I was curious and researched the artist at and was awed by the fact that he had spent 12 years in prison. Then I realized why he connected with States of Confinement
