In Spite of the Consequences

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Lacino Hamilton's story is one of abolition learned not in the halls of academia, but in a cold prison cell. He is one of a growing cadre of people incarcerated and formerly incarcerated who assert their centrality in the struggle for the end of prisons. This is a collection of letters from prison in the spirit of George Jackson's Soledad Brother --letters that can be both intimate and analytical. They search for an understanding of the problem that is not only one of individuals, but of a corrupt system bent on prosecutions, not justice.”
