A new breed of reform-minded prosecutors shares their experiences in challenging the status quo from within the justice system. Kim Foxx, who grew up in Chicago's Cabrini-Green housing projects, never imagined she would become the chief prosecutor of the nation's second-largest county. Chesa Boudin, whose parents were incarcerated during his childhood, developed a unique perspective on justice shaped by visiting them in prison. Alongside eleven other elected prosecutors committed to reform, they reflect on their mission to instigate change from within. Utilizing the power of their offices—historically associated with mass incarceration and severe penalties—these prosecutors are part of a movement to transform the justice system. In this collection, they recount their journeys to office, the initiatives they are implementing to disrupt "business as usual," the resistance they have faced, and their insights on achievable reforms. This groundbreaking work, published in collaboration with Fair and Just Prosecution, features deeply personal profiles of thirteen transformative district attorneys, each paired with artwork inspired by their stories and created by formerly incarcerated artists.
