The U.S. prison system is all by itself a crime against humanity. And for
every dangerous criminal it takes out of the general population it probably
produces one or two.

Subject: [Pen-l] "The New Jim Crow"

The book THE NEW JIM CROW (and its author) is getting a lot of play, e.g. on
NPR and Democracy Now.

I want to recommend it strongly to the list.

The crime against a slice of the US population is certainly a crime against
humanity.

And it is also a macro economic issue that doesn't get noticed in the
employment issues.  People a disappeared, not unemployed, is what happens.
