Lynch mobs, chain gangs, and popular views of black Southern criminals that defined the Jim Crow South are well known. We know less about the role of the urban North in shaping views of race and crime in American society. Chronicling the emergence of deeply embedded notions of black people as a dangerous race of criminals by explicit contrast to working-class whites and European immigrants, this fascinating book reveals the influence such ideas have had on urban development and social policies.

Flawlessly researched and documented
Revisado: 11-30-22
This book and even the narration was an example of flawless execution on a very difficult topic. The only thing the author could have improved upon would have been him relating how it all tied in today a bit more but that probably would have made the book too long. All in all I learned quite a bit from it.

Over the last two centuries, America’s cops have increasingly come to resemble ground troops. The consequences have been dire: The home is no longer a place of sanctuary, the Fourth Amendment has been gutted, and police today have been conditioned to see the citizens they serve as enemies. In Rise of the Warrior Cop, Balko shows how politicians’ ill-considered policies and relentless declarations of war against vague enemies like crime, drugs, and terror have blurred the distinction between cop and soldier.

Fascinating expose’ of data
Revisado: 11-07-22
The book starts off a little slow after the introduction but quickly picks up speed by presenting an avalanche of compelling data. Extrapolation of statistics, tables and first hand stories command your attention and will challenge even the most diehard blue lives matter crowd if they really listen. Highly recommended.
