Kevin B. Smith- Jail's Reckoning
Kevin B. Smith, political science professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, has dedicated over two decades to studying state politics and policies. With nine books to his name, his latest, "The Jailer’s Reckoning: How Mass Incarceration Is Damaging America," delves deeply into the uniquely American issue of mass incarceration. Smith explores the social, economic, and political burdens that affect current and former prisoners, who face significant challenges as they try to reenter the workforce and society. His work sheds light on a system that leaves little room for second chances but stresses that these individuals, though scarred, are not forgotten. This is The Jailer’s Reckoning.
