Khalil Gibran Muhammad chronicles how, when, and why modern notions of black people as an exceptionally dangerous race of criminals first emerged. Well known are the lynch mobs and racist criminal justice practices in the South that stoked white fears of black crime and shaped the contours of the New South. In this illuminating book, Muhammad shifts our attention to the urban North as a crucial but overlooked site for the production and dissemination of those ideas and practices. Following the 1890 census--the first to measure the generation of African Americans born after slavery--crime statistics, new migration and immigration trends, and symbolic references to America as the promised land were woven into a cautionary tale about the exceptional threat black people posed to modern urban society. Excessive arrest rates and overrepresentation in northern prisons were seen by many whites--liberals and conservatives, northerners and southerners--as indisputable proof of blacks' inferiority. What else but pathology could explain black failure in the land of opportunity? Social scientists and reformers used crime statistics to mask and excuse anti-black racism, violence, and discrimination across the nation, especially in the urban North. The Condemnation of Blackness is the most thorough historical account of the enduring link between blackness and criminality in the making of modern urban America. It is a startling examination of why the echoes of America's Jim Crow past continue to resonate in 'color-blind' crime rhetoric today"--Jacket. 588 0 Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed June 13, 2019). 648 7 20th century|2fast 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Crime and race|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009122300|xHistory|y20th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 African Americans|xSocial conditions|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85001983|xHistory|y20th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 African Americans|xLegal status, laws, etc.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85001962|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006165 650 0 Discrimination in criminal justice administration|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2008102307|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 Hate crimes|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh2008105493|xHistory|y20th century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 Racism|xPolitical aspects|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010109284|xHistory |y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006165 650 7 Crime and race.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/883028 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 African Americans|xSocial conditions.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/799698 650 7 African Americans|xLegal status, laws, etc.|2fast|0https:/ /id.worldcat.org/fast/799632 650 7 Discrimination in criminal justice administration.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/895034 650 7 Hate crimes.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/951873 650 7 Racism|xPolitical aspects.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1086627 650 7 Race relations.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1086509 650 7 Hate crimes.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0000109 650 7 Racism.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0002038 651 0 United States|xRace relations|xHistory|y20th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2007100028 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 856 40 |zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
