t r u t h o u t | For years, in addition to her tireless work running Truthout, Maya Schenwar has written on the impact of prisons in the United States - the devastating effects this system of incarceration has on individuals, families, communities and the country as a whole.
As more and more people recognize the US prison system as a pressing issue, her work has appeared not just at Truthout but also The Guardian and The New York Times. Now we are very proud to announce the release of Maya Schenwar's debut book, "Locked Down, Locked Out: Why Prison Doesn't Work and How We Can Do Better": http://org2.salsalabs.com/o/6694/t/17304/shop/item.jsp?storefront_KEY=661&t=&store_item_KEY=2906
"Locked Down, Locked Out" is a deeply personal and unflinchingly honest book, drawing directly on the experience of Schenwar's own family, as well as extensive research and interviews with those who are incarcerated and those who are working to find better alternatives to incarceration. Through the stories of prisoners and their loved ones, Truthout's editor-in-chief looks at how prison breaks apart families and communities, creating a rippling effect that touches every corner of our society. With an eye always on the practical, she explores how we can provide healing and resolution to victims while building public safety in communities - and ultimately, how we can create a safer, more just world.
"Locked Down, Locked Out" has already been acclaimed by everyone from Michelle Alexander, author of The "New Jim Crow", to former Congressman Dennis Kucinich, and from Bill Ayers to Angela Davis, who says it contains "brilliant juxtaposition of abolitionist imaginaries and radical political practices."
