Krivo, co-author of Divergent Social Worlds: Neighborhood Crime and the Racial-Spatial Divide \"Katheryn Russell-Brownprovides plenty of food for thought, new information, and intriguing perspectives in the portrayal of race, crime and justice in the United States. This updated edition of \u003ci\u003eThe Color of Crime\u003c\/i\u003e will be a valuable resource for a variety of audiences, providing a broader and more thorough treatment of race and crime than many other works, including attention to timely issues like racial hoaxes, White crime, and more.\" - Ruth D. Peterson, co-author of Divergent Social Worlds: Neighborhood Crime and the Racial-Spatial Divide \"This book is a classic. When \u003ci\u003eThe Color of Crime\u003c\/i\u003e was first released, Russell-Brown shook the worlds of criminology, penology, and a then-burgeoning sociology of punishment by centering anti-black images in the media in her study of what we would later understand as the rise of mass incarceration. Updated with chapters and case studies that account for new kinds of media and racism, as well as our broader understanding of the carceral state's reach, this interdisciplinary, accessible, and ambitious work has proven, once again, that Russell-Brown's trenchant analysis is indispensable for serious students of race and crime control in the United States and beyond.\" - Reuben Jonathan Miller, author of Halfway Home: Race, Punishment, and the Afterlife of Mass Incarceration\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow we can understand race, crime, and punishment in the age of Black Lives Matter\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When \u003ci\u003eThe Color of Crime \u003c\/i\u003ewas first published in 1998, it was heralded as a path-breaking book on race and crime. Now, in its third edition, Katheryn Russell-Brown's book is more relevant than ever, as police killings of unarmed Black civilians—such as George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Daniel Prude—continue to make headlines around the world. She continues to ask, why do Black and white Americans perceive police actions so differently? Is white fear of Black crime justified?\u003cbr\u003e With three new chapters, over forty new racial hoax cases, and other timely updates, this edition offers an even more expansive view of crime and punishment in the twenty-first century. Russell-Brown gives us much-needed insight into some of the most recent racial hoaxes, such as the one perpetrated by Amy Cooper. Should perpetrators of racial hoaxes be charged with a felony? Further, Russell-Brown makes a compelling case for race and crime literacy and the need to address and name White crime. Russell-Brown powerfully concludes the book with a parable that invites readers to imagine what would happen if Blacks decided to abandon the United States. \u003cbr\u003e Russell-Brown explores the tacit and subtle ways that crime is systematically linked to people of color. \u003ci\u003eThe Color of Crime\u003c\/i\u003e is a lucid and forceful volume that calls for continued vigilance on the part of scholars, policymakers, journalists, and others in the age of Black Lives Matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"NYU Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52591040561432,"sku":"9781479801749","price":69.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-color-of-crime-third-edition-racial-hoaxes-white-crime-media-messages-police-violence-and-other-race-based-harms-hardback-9781479801749","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
