Usual Cruelty

The Complicity of Lawyers in the Criminal Injustice System

Alec Karakatsanis

Usual Cruelty is a powerful critique of the American justice system from a leading civil rights lawyer. Alec Karakatsanis unpacks how the legal profession has normalized the inhumane practice of mass incarceration, particularly for poor and marginalized individuals. He challenges us to reconsider what we choose to punish and advocates for a more equitable justice system that serves all people, not just the wealthy. This is a must-read for anyone interested in civil rights and social justice.

Deserved. Alec, a former public defender & now head of @CivRightsCorps, lead the litigation strategy that will prevent Harris County Texas from jailing tens of thousands of people each year on bail they can’t afford. Wrote a brilliant book on the power of words to combat cruelty.      источник
