Lanham : Rowman & Littlefield, 2018 Description:  xii, 271 pages : illustrations, maps ; 24 cm Contents:  Acknowledgments -- Preface -- Setting the stage -- Urban riots and protests -- Mass incarceration -- School to prison pipeline -- The prison industrial complex -- Policing black women's bodies -- Policing trans bodies -- Police killings of unarmed black men -- Ultimate failure: exoneration -- Intersectionality, color-blind racism, and a call to action -- Appendix A: High profile police shootings of black men and the outcomes -- Appendix B: Resources -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index. Summary:  "Policing Black Bodies goes beyond chronicling isolated incidents of injustice to look at the broader systems of inequality in our society{u2014}how they're structured, how they harm Black people, and how we can work for positive change. The book discusses the school-to-prison pipeline, mass incarceration and the prison boom, the unique ways Black women and trans people are treated, wrongful convictions and the challenges of exoneration, and more. Each chapter of the book opens with a true story, explains the history and current state of the issue, and looks toward how we can work for change. The book calls attention to the ways class, race, and gender contribute to injustice, as well as the perils of colorblind racism{u2014}that by pretending not to see race we actually strengthen, rather than dismantle, racist social structures. Policing Black Bodies is a powerful call to acknowledge injustice and work for change."--Inside dust jacket.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Peosta Library Circulation Stacks 364.4 Hat 2018 Checked In Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
