Carl Dix, Revolutionary Communist Party, October 22nd Coalition and Stop Mass Incarceration Network, talks about the slow genocide concentrated in the oppression, repression, jailing and killing of Black people in America and the system behind it. Dix digs into the importance of nationwide demonstrations against police brutality on October 22, 2012.
Michelle Alexander, author and lawyer, provides an incisive and insightful picture of how the War on Drugs and the resulting mass incarceration of Black and brown people was designed to create a racialized caste system, a whole new Jim Crow system even as we're told that we live in a colorblind society.
