About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 There are two ways to experience the police in America: as the people you call when there is a problem, or as the people who are called on you. For many, the police are the ones who are called on them.
#2 I was a college student at the time, and I was carrying weed to a Republican convention. I was almost caught, but fortunately nothing bad came out of it. With the advantage of hindsight, I can look back and know that if I had been arrested, it would’ve been no more than an embarrassing hassle.
#3 I have never been to jail or prison, but I have spent a lot of time on the ground reporting on criminal justice and the growing social movement to reform it.
#4 The United States has the most incarcerated citizens in the world, and it has done so for more than four decades. The country’s homicide rate has declined sharply from its peak, but it remains higher than that of any other developed democracy.
