| 520 | |a When people join together to contest received ideas of justice and safety, the challenge the ideas that prosecutions and prisons make us safer, that public officials charged with maintaining "law and order" are carrying out the will of the people, and that justice requires putting people in cages. Simonson points out the problems posed by the American carceral state present profound moral questions of our time. She shows how to shift power away from the elite actors at the front of the courtroom and toward the swelling collective in the back. -- adapted from jacket | ||
