A meticulous exposé of who profits from incarceration, culminating in a compelling case for abolition

“Many know that corporate interests corrupt the contemporary American prison system, but Bianca Tylek and Worth Rises take an extra step to detail exactly how these interests manifest. With powerful narratives and meticulous analysis, The Prison Industry is an essential read for anyone committed to challenging how American prisons operate and dismantling the industry of oppression that sustains them.”
