About this product

Product Information

The United States' rate of incarceration is the highest in the world. Mauer's Race to Incarcerate is the essential text for understanding the exponential growth of the US prison system, and it has become canonical for those active in the US criminal justice reform movement. Now Sabrina Jones has collaborated with Mauer to adapt his seminal book into a vivid graphic narrative designed to reach a mainstream audience.

Reviews
Selected for the Young Adult Library Services Association's 2014 Great Graphic Novels for Teens List "Jones's gritty illustrations punctuate Mauer's main points. The result is a searing indictment of divisive policies and empty rhetoric. Throughout the short narrative, it is obvious that Mauer and Jones still believe that change can prevail--and that if politicians would only remove the blinders and make much needed investments toward the future, they would see that continued incarceration does nothing to heal the demographic divide." Shelf Awareness "Its political and cultural immediacy makes this an excellent title for adults interested in social issues as well as for college students, teens, and tweens. It also serves as a bridge to Mauer's original edition [first published in 1999], since skillful black-and-white visuals from Jones add clarity and vividness to complex issues." -- Library Journal, Selected for the Young Adult Library Services Association's 2014 Great Graphic Novels for Teens List "Jones's gritty illustrations punctuate Mauer's main points.
