2:37Now PlayingWhat Is The New Jim Crow? In this thought-provoking video, we will discuss the concept of the New Jim Crow, a term that illustrates the modern-day racial control mechanisms in America. Drawing from Michelle Alexander's influential book, "The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness," we will unpack how the criminal justice system disproportionately affects African American men and other minorities.
We will examine the impact of policies like the War on Drugs, which have contributed to the mass incarceration of marginalized communities. This video will highlight the barriers faced by those with felony records, including challenges related to employment, housing, and voting rights. We will also address how the New Jim Crow operates through subtle legal frameworks rather than overt discrimination, revealing the biases that persist within the system.
Our discussion will align with liberal principles that advocate for social justice and equality. We will emphasize the need for reform in the criminal justice system and the importance of restoring rights to those affected by mass incarceration. Join us in this important conversation as we seek to understand and advocate for a more equitable society for all.
