Violence Against Black Bodies
Violence Against Black Bodies: An Intersectional Analysis of How Black Lives Continue to Matter | Sandra E. Weissinger, Dwayne A. Mack, Elwood Watson
1 post | 1 read | 14 to read
Violence Against Black Bodies argues that black deaths at the hands of police are just one form of violence that black and brown people face daily in the western world. rough the voices of scholars from different academic disciplines, this book gives readers an opportunity to put the cases together and see that violent deaths in police custody are just one tentacle of the racial order—a hierarchy which is designed to produce trauma and discrimination according to one’s perceived race-ethnicity.

I cannot recommend this book enough. It's accurate, relevant, necessary, and approachable. A must read for all people. Teachers, professors, media, journalists, criminal justice areas, social work, and on and on. This anthology is a must read for anti-racist activists and others wanting to join the fight. So. Good.
