New Jim Crow Michelle Alexander

        The book states that it ―focuses on the experience of African American men in the new caste system (p. 16). What, if any, are the implications of Alexander‘s focus on African American men rather than both men and women‘s experiences in the new caste system? Consider the excerpts from “In this Place, Not of It” — How do you think women would fit into the arguments Michelle Alexander has made in “The New Jim Crow?”
