The high rates of Black arrests and incarceration from 1960 to 1990 were a direct result of deliberate government policies and a zealous criminal justice system, operating under the patriotic banner of the War on Crime. This domestic war bore striking similarities to the Vietnam War, unfolding concurrently on American soil: a pervasive culture of racism and extreme cruelty towards those perceived as adversaries, the depreciation of other cultures, the militarization of the police force with combat experience, repeated violations of human rights, and the widespread practice of mass incarceration. Regrettably, this conflict persisted long after the conclusion of the Vietnam War. In his comprehensive review, Ronald L. Morris delves into the depths of those dark times, analyzing their underlying causes, short- and long-term consequences, and fervently advocating for transformative change.
