Reviews

""Using the framework of safety, King presents a nuanced exploration of the relationship between African Americans, crime, and the police. In doing so, he makes an invaluable contribution to the history of the Black freedom struggle and the carceral state. . . . The Politics of Safety smartly reveals a history not only of the struggle for police accountability but also of the narratives used to bolster police power.""--American Historical Review
