Focusing on the impact of incarceration, the author reveals how the prison system disrupts families and communities, particularly among poor communities of color. By sharing personal stories, including her own family's experiences, she illustrates the detrimental effects of imprisonment on social ties essential for fostering safety and rehabilitation. Highlighting community-based initiatives, the book advocates for addressing harm through connection instead of isolation, envisioning a future where collective safety and freedom can thrive.
