Argues that the incarceration of black people and other historically repressed groups in chain gangs, peon camps, prison plantations, and penitentiaries represents the perpetuation of chattel slavery. With more than 2.3 million people in the country?s jails, prisons, and immigrant detention centers, Childs exposes slavery as a continuing social reality of U.S. empire. --From publisher description.
