Outing Blue Privilege: A Call for Public Love Because Public Safety Is Not Enough

* Advance Praise & Reviews *
"Outing Blue Privilege reads policing and prison through the eyes of a criminalized Galilean and the voices of the incarcerated themselves, and it refuses the thin comfort of 'public safety.' . . . A bracing, deeply felt reckoning." –Michelle Alexander, author, The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness

Public love is protest and policy advocacy. Policy advocacy is a civic prayer that impacts the soul of the nation.

Policing and punishment hover over us as matters of life and death. Our world aches for a species of love strong enough to undo the personal, collective, and structural terror and trauma of policing and punishment.
In our republic, it's common to grapple with intrigues around public policy, public housing, public safety, and public benefits, but what about public love? In Outing Blue Privilege Willie Francois pushes readers into an activism of public love, the embodiment, creation of, and advocacy for common goodness, equity, and justice.
