Join us as we discuss the award-winning CHAIN-GANG ALL-STARS by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah.
Chain-Gang All-Stars is the cornerstone of CAPE, or Criminal Action Penal Entertainment, a highly-popular, highly-controversial, profit-raising program in America's increasingly dominant private prison industry. It's the return of the gladiators and prisoners are competing for the ultimate prize: their freedom. In CAPE, prisoners travel as Links in Chain-Gangs, competing in death-matches for packed arenas with righteous protestors at the gates.
