520 _aMiller, a Chicago Cook County Jail chaplain and mass-incarceration sociologist, examines the lifelong realities of a criminal record. He demonstrates how America's justice system is less about rehabilitation and more about structured disenfranchisement. In doing so, he captures the stories of the men, women, and communities fighting against a system that is designed for them to fail. -- adapted from jacket
