Original Note:
These figures would benefit from the added context of US prison population growth through this time period, which increased by more than a factor of ten— from approximately 185,000 incarcerated in 1955, to approximately 2,190,000 incarcerated in 2019. https://thecrimereport.org/2017/08/09/what-u-s-prison-population-looked-like-in-the-50s/ https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/prison-population-by-state
