离谱的是，大规模监禁在美国其实是个相对较新的现象。安吉拉·戴维斯（Angela Davis）的《Are Prisons Obsolete》真是让我大开眼界。
The crazy thing is that mass incarceration is relatively new in the US. Are Prisons Obsolete by Angela Davis was a real eye-opener for me.
解决办法可不是搞一个比 Jpay 效率更高的竞品，而是废除监狱。安吉拉·戴维斯就这个话题写过一本很棒的短小精悍的书，叫《Are Prisons Obsolete?》。
The solution isn't making a more efficient competitor to Jpay. The solution is abolishing prisons. Angela Davis has written a good short book on this subject called "Are Prisons Obsolete?".
……坚持要提起诉讼。现在这孩子不仅一辈子都要背上性犯罪者的标签，而且他的登记记录上还写着受害者是未成年人。我们现行的刑事“司法”机制从根本上就错漏百出。推荐阅读安吉拉·Y·戴维斯的《Are Prisons Obsolete》：http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1583225811/donhosek
…insists on pressing charges. Now the kid is not only labeled a sex offender for life, but his listing says victim was a minor. Our whole approach to criminal "justice" is deeply flawed.

……（17世纪）。至少读读序言（大概100页），正文也可以随便翻翻。这东西很难解释——最好自己去查查。至于更近期、更切中当下现实的内容，我觉得安吉拉·戴维斯的《Are Prisons Obsolete?》非常发人深省，讲清了执法部门中的种族主义历史以及现代监狱系统的形成。
…(17th c.). At least the preface (around 100 pages) and maybe a smattering of the book proper. It's hard to explain - better to look it up. For something more recent and immediately relevant, I think "Are Prisons Obsolete?" by Angela Davis was quite eye opening about the history of racism in law enforcement and the production of the modern prison system.
