    • Introduction: The Meaning of Mass Imprisonment
    • note
    • The terms "mass incarceration" and "mass imprisonment" are used synonymously in the criminal justice literature. David Garland is credited with coining "mass imprisonment"; according to Garland, mass imprisonment's two defining features are 1) "sheer numbers" and 2) "the systematic imprisonment of whole groups of the population."

As one form of racial subjugation is dismantled, says Wacquant, another takes its place. Each of these institutions subordinates and confines blacks "in physical, social, and symbolic space."

    • The statutory requirements for obtaining occupational licenses vary among the states and according to the type of license. In some instances, a criminal conviction will bar a license. For example, a person cannot become a real estate appraiser in Alaska if he has been convicted of a crime "involving moral turpitude," Alaska Stat. § 08.87.110 (1995), or obtain a liquor license in South Dakota if he has ever committed a felony

I do not mean to argue that D.C. officials have never advocated for less punitive crime policy. They have occasionally done so-for example, as I mentioned earlier, when the D.C. Council eliminated mandatory minimums for drug offenses. My point is that, despite the federal involvement in District affairs, the D.C.

    • Determinants of Penal Policies
    • note
    • There are a variety of measures we might use to assess a jurisdiction's relative punitiveness. Does the jurisdiction have a death penalty, and, if so, how frequently is it used? Does it have mandatory minimums for sentencing or three-strikes provisions? Does it permanently disenfranchise felons? What are conditions like inside its prisons? How adequately does it fund its indigent defense system? And the list goes on. But incarceration rates are the most commonly used criteria, for at least two reasons. First, they allow for relatively straightforward comparisons across jurisdictions. Second, incarceration rates usefully aggregate a number of other measures. Whether a jurisdiction has mandatory minimums, what maximum sentence length it authorizes for a particular offense, whether it has three-strikes or other repeat offender provisions, whether it punishes crack and powder cocaine offenses differently-these all factor into that jurisdiction's incarceration rates. For a thoughtful discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of using incarceration rates to compare penal policies across jurisdictions, see Michael Tonry, Determinants of Penal Policies, in 36 Crime and Justice: Crime, Punishment, and Politics in Comparitive Perspective 1+7-13 (Michael Tonry ed., 2007).

    • I do not mean to ascribe a punitive motive to individual Council members or those of the Council as a whole. It is difficult to divine motive in cases such as these. Perhaps the Council is acting because of hostility or indifference to blacks accused of crime. Maybe its choices result from perceived budget constraints, or a perception of what voters want, or something else. My goal here is not to argue that any of these motives predominates. Instead, I seek to raise questions about a motive argument that others have made. Specifically, I use the evidence from the D.C. Council to challenge the claim that blacks only choose prison because they have no other choice and that they would opt for less punitive alternatives if they were available.

This tendency is widespread among civil rights and racial justice advocates, as I experienced when serving on a panel addressing mass incarceration at a conference hosted by one of the nation's leading civil rights organizations. The audience appeared moved by the magnitude of the crisis that mass incarceration presents. But despite my attempts to broaden the conversation, it remained rooted in the most comfortable place, with everyone condemning the War on Drugs and no one addressing the issue of violent crime

    • In the preceding pages I have focused on the prison population, rather than the larger group of individuals that is under correctional control (including probation, parole, and pre-trial release). But perhaps I am wrong to focus on prisoners; one response to my argument would be to point out that although drug offenders are vastly outnumbered by violent ones in our nation's prisons, the percentages are closer when we include all those who are under criminal justice supervision outside of prison. The distinction matters because the New Jim Crow writers are rightly concerned about a broader system that subjects more blacks to state supervision and collateral consequences. See Supra Part II (discussing the New Jim Crow writers' analysis of the stigmatizing and marginalizing effects of mass incarceration on low-income black communities). This is a fair response, but not a complete rejoinder. First, because deprivation of liberty in prison is the most fundamental form of subjugation our criminal justice system imposes (other than death), the growth of the prison system itself plays a prominent role in critiques of mass incarceration, including those of the New Jim Crow writers. Second, even looking at probationers and parolees, it is a mistake to focus exclusively on drug offenders, for drug offenders still do not constitute a majority of those under criminal justice supervision. For example, 26% of the 4.2 million Americans on probation have a drug crime as their most serious offense

Although my primary concern is analytical, overlooking violence is also a strategic error, because those who seek to challenge mass incarceration render themselves ineffectual in policy debates when they avoid discussing violent crime. After all, advocates for tough-on-crime measures are not going to stop discussing violence; and, by ceding this terrain to them, progressives and the civil rights community allow those who seek more punitive crime policy to present themselves as the sole defenders of public safety. This, in turn, diminishes progressives' chances of building an effective movement to counter mass incarceration.

King's response, in part, was as follows: I guess it is easy for those who have never felt the stinging darts of segregation to say "wait." But when you have seen vicious mobs lynch your mothers and fathers at will and drown your sisters and brothers at whim; when you have seen hate-filled policemen curse, kick, brutalize, and even kill your black brothers and sisters with impunity; when you see the vast majority of your twenty million Negro brothers smothering in an airtight cage of poverty in the midst of an affluent society; when you suddenly find your tongue twisted and your speech stammering as you seek to explain to your six-year-old daughter why she cannot go to the public amusement park that has just been advertised on television, and see tears welling up in her little eyes when she is told that Funtown is closed to colored children, and see the depressing clouds of inferiority begin to form in her little mental sky. then you will understand why we find it difficult to wait.

There is a fundamental disconnect today between the world of civil rights advocacy and the reality facing those trapped in the new racial undercaste. Id., at 234.

As a result, whereas African Americans had constituted 58% of those serving time in state prisons for drug offenses in 1999, by 2005 that number had fallen to 45%.

    • One important exception is ROBERT PERKINSON, TEXAS TOUGH: THE RISE OF AMERICA'S PRISON EMPIRE (2010). I acknowledge that there is an alternative view. Perhaps the New Jim Crow analogy will instead serve to reinforce our memory of that regime. The analogy has the following structure: "X was awful, and Y is a lot like X." Perhaps this necessarily reaffirms that X (here, Jim Crow) was terrible, even if the proponents of the analogy spend little time arguing the point.

While this circumstance is horribly unfortunate for them, it does create important opportunities for a multiracial, bottom-up resistance movement, one in which people of all races can claim a clear stake. For the first time in our nation's history, it may become readily apparent to whites how they, too, can be harmed by anti-black racism-a fact that, until now, has been difficult for many to grasp.
