Story
Rikers Island has long stood as one of the most infamous jails in America—synonymous with violence, neglect, and systemic injustice. This powerful nonfiction account exposes the inner workings of the facility through deeply researched history, firsthand testimonies, and a critical examination of the policies that allowed it to endure. From the daily struggles of detainees to the broader forces of race, poverty, and politics that shape incarceration, this book offers a searing indictment of the carceral state—and a vision for what must come next.
