Debt Paid But Unforgiven: The Lifetime Debt of a Felony Conviction

di Demone Dickerson (Autore)

Demone Dickerson, 2024

In Debt Paid: But Unforgiven, Demone Dickerson delivers a poignant exploration of the harrowing American criminal justice system—a system where violators of the law are told to pay their debt to society, only to discover upon release that their debt remains unpaid and their struggles have just begun. Inside the walls of America's private prisons, profit takes precedence over rehabilitation. The system is deliberately structured to ensure that inmates return, perpetuating a cycle of recidivism that is devastating individuals, families, and communities. Once released, people impacted by the criminal justice system face an unrelenting barrage of barriers: job applications ask about criminal history, landlords refuse to rent to them, and society turns a blind eye to their plight. The promise of a fresh start becomes a mirage, and many fall back into crime, not by choice, but by circumstance. Dickerson not only exposes the flaws in the current system but also offers a beacon of hope. He provides a comprehensive roadmap for people with felony convictions seeking to rebuild their lives against the odds, and he calls on families, communities, and governments to enact meaningful reforms. His insightful prescriptions aim to reevaluate the private prison industrial complex and pave the way for a system that truly rehabilitates and reintegrates formerly incarcerated individuals. Debt Paid: But Unforgiven is a must-read for anyone who believes in justice, equity, and the possibility of redemption. Join Demone Dickerson as he sheds light on the tragedy of the American prison system and champions the fight for a future where every debt, once paid, is truly forgiven.
