Beach Reading


Some recent and backlogged titles for your delectation while soaking up surf and rays:

Racism & Felony Disenfranchisement: An Intertwined History by Erin Kelly at the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law.   Like they say, if voting really mattered, they wouldn't let you do it.

Hungary’s transit zones are prisons where pregnant women are handcuffed and children go hungry by András Földes, an important and rare English language post at Hungary's Index.hu.  When it comes to how to treat those seeking refuge, Hungary's Viktor Orbán and his ruling party Fidesz drink from the same trough as their American counterparts.

In the Year of #BlackGirlMagic, Marion Jones Is Missing by Dave Zirin at The Nation.  The rest of the story.
