Brilliant read on the logics & consequences of the prison-industrial complex. By @john_majoreason

And solutions for minimizing harm!

Our article is now open access! I'm so thankful that many friends already added "Mended Windows, Not Broken Windows: A Du Boisian Analysis of Urban Policing" in @CiCoJournal to their summer reading list. We appreciate you engaging with this corrective against BW rhetoric.

Check out this feature on @AngelicaLeighOB's innovative research on the racial dynamics of leadership.
