Rethinking the American Prison Movement provides a short,
accessible overview of the transformational and ongoing struggles
against America's prison system. Dan Berger and Toussaint Losier
show that prisoners have used strikes, lawsuits, uprisings,
writings, and diverse coalitions with free-world allies to
challenge prison conditions and other kinds of inequality. From the
forced labor camps of the nineteenth century to the rebellious
protests of the 1960s and 1970s to the rise of mass incarceration
and its discontents, Rethinking the American Prison Movement is
invaluable to anyone interested in the history of American prisons
and the struggles for justice still echoing in the present day.
