520    "The Idea of Black Criminality was crucial to the making 
       of modern urban America. 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.
