"""""A Theology of Justice is a much-needed resource to confront difficulties faced in the United States in racial issues and prison reform. The topics have relevance for today and the future. I hope that our country has the courage and fortitude to enact the changes necessary to bring a better tomorrow."""" --Brian Alpaugh, former adult probation officer """"Dr. Covin's analysis, testimony, and code of ethics is a powerful yet poignant reminder of how the United States views and treats our millions of incarcerated individuals. Prison officials, reformers, and abolitionists alike can find language and reason for transforming and humanizing our notoriously and unnecessarily harsh, unjust prison system, so long as it exists."""" --Nick Miron, anti-racism educator and trainer """"This publication provides thoughtful, clear, and compelling ethical principles and insight that speak to the need for radical change in corrections praxis. The strength and integrity of this work is presented with impressive scholarship, clarity, and accuracy and covers more than twenty years of experiential learning, analysis, and research. Thirty-eight ethical principles presented, if applied, should positively change the painstaking narrative and trajectory of incarcerations in America among people in general and people of color in particular."""" --Carol Green Freeman, former district court commissioner, Baltimore City"
