An original argument that the answer to mass incarceration lies not with experts and pundits, but with ordinary people taking extraordinary actions togetherwritten by a leading authority on bail reform and social movements

From reading books on mass incarceration, one might conclude that the way out of our overly punitive, racially disparate criminal system is to put things in the hands of experts, technocrats able to think their way out of the problem. But, as Jocelyn Simonson points out in her groundbreaking new book, the problems posed by the American carceral state are not just technical puzzles  they present profound moral questions for our time.
Radical Acts of Justice tells the stories of ordinary people joining together in collective acts of resistance: paying bail for a stranger, using social media to let the public know what everyday courtroom proceedings are like, making a video about someones life for a criminal court judge, presenting a budget proposal to the city council. When people join together to contest received ideas of justice and safety, they challenge the ideas that prosecutions and prisons make us safer  that public officials charged with maintaining law and order are carrying out the will of the people  and that justice requires putting people in cages. Through collective action, these groups live out new and more radical ideas of what justice can look like.
