Powerful treatise on the impact of Reagan’s “War on Drugs” on African American male population. The author provides historical context re American race relations, detailing evolution from “exploitation (slavery) to subordination (Jim Crow) to marginalization (mass incarceration)”. Thorough and systematically presented.
