"Some would argue that America’s prison problem is very much a design problem."
As a prison abolitionist (who used to be a TA at San Quentin), that article was a tough read for me. There is a growing movement for design justice; so the argument that those concerns are out of scope for "average" designers is way off base. There should be no higher concern. Yeesh.

An article by the same author that addresses the core of my work as a design professional, and to some extent as an academic as well.
Unfortunately, I take umbrage with almost every element of the article, as well as the tone of the article. The section that forefronts ADPSR and Raphael Sperry really gets my goat. [Sorry this is a little off topic for this forum.]
In any case, her book sounds https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=haPNsVOwHJs amazing.

Into the raging sea : thirty-three mariners, one megastorm, and the sinking of
El Faro. It's not just the details of changing oil filters - it's also the ways that the corporation that owned the ship cut corners, and way. And it's a great and terrifying story, based on the actual recordings of conversations captured by microphones
on the bridge and preserved on the ship's black box.
