“Welcome to the Department of Restorative Justice and Redemption.” America’s prison system is brutal, stupid and inhumane. “Reform” or band-aids will not make it better – it must be uprooted, abolished and replaced.
Money on the Left is joined by Emily K. Hobson and Dan Berger, coeditors and curators of the recently published collection Remaking Radicalism: A Grassroots Documentary Reader of the United States, 1973-2001.
On this episode, Dr. Dan Berger defines the Carceral State and explores its roots and impact. Berger argues that protest against the Carceral State is one of its key features, and he discusses the modern history of radicalism.
