Joe Offer	BS: Sentencing children to die in prison (68* d)	RE: BS: Sentencing children to die in prison	22 Sep 17
Wizzy, I haven't finished reading the book, and I didn't get to any discussion of prison labor in Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow. Give me a quotation and cite chapter and verse if you want me to know what income prisons derive from the work done by inmates, especially that done by inmates who are minors. It's clear to me from the Alexander book that the primary function of mass incarceration is to control black males, who are seen as a threat to society. However, I did find an article in The Economist (click) that shows that prison industry in the U.S. does make more money than I thought it did. -Joe Offer-
