Compelling case for the abolition of prisons from heavyweights in this arena.
And the description of the Mexican student strike at la UNAM is an incredible firsthand account. Learning more about this event reminds readers of the many faces of injustice, and to find solidarity in movements to uplift oppressed people across the world.
