The End Of Justice Why America Is The Most [Paperback]

With only 5% of the global population, America has close to 25% of the prison population. America is the most incarcerated country in the world. Why? Americans are ignorant, apathetic, and fearful, and, thus, subjected to the institutional arrogance of governing authorities.

If not, we are a vanquished people and America is a conquered country. In 2012, the author, James Johnson, confronted the unimaginable.
