About this ebook:
A startlingexamination of the deliberate criminalization of black youths from the 1930s totodayAstark disparity exists between black and white youth experiences in the justicesystem today. Black youths are perceived to be older and less innocent thantheir white peers. When it comes to incarceration, race trumps class, and evenas black youths articulate their own experiences with carceral authorities, many Americans remain surprised by the inequalities they continue to endure. Inthis revealing book, Carl Suddler brings to light a much longer history of thepolicies and strategies that tethered the lives of black youths to the justicesystem indefinitely.Thecriminalization of black youth is inseparable from its racialized origins. Inthe mid-twentieth century, the United States justice system began to focus onpunishment, rather than rehabilitation. By the time the federal government beganto address the issue of juvenile delinquency, the juvenile justice system shifted its priorities from saving delinquent youth to purelycontrolling crime, and black teens bore the brunt of the transition.InNew York City, increased state surveillance of predominantly black communitiescompounded arrest rates during the post-World War II period, providingjustification for tough-on-crime policies. Questionable police practices, likestop-and-frisk, combined with media sensationalism, cemented the belief thatblack youth were the primary cause for concern. Even before the War on Crime, the stakes were clear: race would continue to be the crucial determinant inAmerican notions of crime and delinquency, and black youths condemned with astigma of criminality would continueto confront the overwhelming power of the state.
