The First Civil Right: How Liberals Built Prison America - Studies in Postwar American Political Development
Murakawa, Naomi (Assistant Professor of Political Science, Assistant Professor of Political Science, University of Washington, Seattle)
In this book is a groundbreaking analysis of root of the conflicts that lie at the intersection of race and the legal system in America. Naomi Murakawa inverts the conventional wisdom by arguing that the expansion of the federal carceral state-a system that disproportionately imprisons blacks and Latinos-was, in fact, rooted in the civil-rights liberalism of the 1940s and early 1960s, not in the period after.
