A Revolution Of Values: The Criminal Justice System Is Not Fair

Before you can fairly assess the legitimacy of the ongoing protests or the quality of the government’s response, you must understand the relevant facts. And the most relevant fact is that America’s criminal justice system is rotten to its core. Though that certainly does not justify the violence and wanton destruction of property perpetrated by far too many protesters, it does provide useful context for comprehending the intensity of their anger and the fecklessness of the government’s response. If America is burning, it is fair to say that America’s criminal justice system—which is itself a raging dumpster fire of injustice—lit the fuse. This book is an eye-opening indictment against the current system. It highlights the long-term effects of criminal records for offenders, their families, our communities, public safety and the economy. The truth is revealed behind what’s fueling the nation’s accelerated recidivism rates and the only solutions that will turn the tides.
