Information on various cases of individuals sentenced to life in prison without parole, raising questions about racial bias in the criminal justice system. Articles discuss the cases of troy davis, a man sentenced to death row despite lack of evidence, and a serial killer nurse. Michelle alexander's essay 'the new jim crow' is also cited, highlighting the disproportionate number of black men in prison today compared to the number of enslaved black men in 1850.
