Mass incarceration has rightly become a major topic of discussion and organizing on the Left recently. But our guests today, Adaner Usmani and John Clegg, have some issues with how we talk about that incarceration system and many of the standard strategies for how we go about dismantling it.
John and Adaner are the authors of the Catalyst article "The Economic Origins of Mass Incarceration," which you can read here: https://catalyst-<wbr />journal.com/vol3/no3/the-<wbr />economic-origins-of-mass-<wbr />incarceration
