American Prison: A Reporter's Undercover Journey Into the Business of Punishment | Shane Bauer

Today's reading

LoverOfLearning I don't stop talking about this book. I was so captivated yet traumatized by this. I gave it 5 stars and recommended it to anyone who listens. Especially because I work with criminal offenders. What were your thoughts?! 5mo

SpaceCowboyBooks @LoverOfLearning It was definitely intense. And it solidified my belief that privatized prisons should not exist. We really need to work towards constructive healing instead of punishment in system that makes things worse. The author was certainly brave to report on this. 5mo

LoverOfLearning @SpaceCowboyBooks I absolutely agree. Private prisons should be banned at a federal level. Very brave to go under cover! Just wow! This is why i will never stop talking about this book, noone knows private prison / systematic slavery exist 5mo
