Story
In the United States today, one in every 31 adults is under some form of penal control, including one in 11 African American men. How did the "land of the free" become the home of the world's largest prison system? Challenging the belief that America's prison problem originated with the Reagan administration's War on Drugs, Elizabeth Hinton traces the rise of mass incarceration to an ironic source: the social welfare programs of Lyndon Johnson's Great Society at the height of the civil rights era.

Story
In America on Fire, acclaimed Professor Elizabeth Hinton draws on previously untapped sources to unravel this extraordinary history for the first time, arguing that we cannot understand the civil rights struggle without coming to terms with the astonishing violence and hugely expanded policing regime that followed it. A leading scholar of policing, Hinton underlines a crucial lesson in the book and shows how it continues to escape policy makers, who respond by further criminalising entire groups instead of addressing underlying socioeconomic causes.
