Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into the evolution of police brutality in New Orleans, highlighting the transition from vigilante violence to state-sanctioned killings. Jeffrey S. Adler's thorough research reveals how policing in Southern urban areas during the interwar years became a replacement for lynching, with systemic violence against Black citizens becoming institutionalized. This analysis not only sheds light on historical injustices but also emphasizes the ongoing implications for racial justice in the U.S., making it essential reading for understanding the roots of contemporary police violence.
