Men, especially Black men, often stand in as the ultimate symbol of the mass incarceration crisis in the United States. Women are treated as marginal, if not overlooked altogether, in histories of the criminal legal system. In The Streets Belong to Us - the first history of women and police in the modern United States - Anne Gray Fischer narrates how sexual policing fueled a dramatic expansion of police power. The enormous discretionary power that police officers wield to surveil, target, and arrest anyone they deem suspicious was tested, legitimized, and legalized through the policing of women's sexuality and their right to move freely through city streets. Throughout the twentieth century, police departments achieved a stunning consolidation of urban authority through the strategic discretionary enforcement of morals laws, including disorderly conduct, vagrancy, and other prostitution-related misdemeanors. Between Prohibition in the 1920s and the rise of 'broken windows' policing in the 1980s, police targeted white and Black women in distinct but interconnected ways. These tactics reveal the centrality of racist and sexist myths to the justification and deployment of state power. Sexual policing did not just enhance police power. It also transformed cities from segregated sites of 'urban vice' into the gentrified sites of Black displacement and banishment we live in today. By illuminating both the racial dimension of sexual liberalism and the gender dimension of policing in Black neighborhoods, The Streets Belong to Us illustrates the decisive role that race, gender, and sexuality played in the construction of urban police regimes"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Police $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Discrimination in law enforcement $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination against women $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African American women $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination in justice administration $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Urban policy $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Marginality, Social $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations. 650 6 $a Noires américaines $x Conditions sociales. 650 6 $a Discrimination sexuelle dans l'administration de la justice $z Ãtats-Unis $x Histoire $y 20e siècle. 650 6 $a Politique urbaine $z Ãtats-Unis $x Histoire $y 20e siècle. 651 6 $a Ãtats-Unis $x Relations raciales. 650 6 $a Discrimination dans l'application des lois $z Ãtats-Unis $x Histoire $y 20e siècle. 650 6 $a Discrimination à l'égard des femmes $z Ãtats-Unis $x Histoire $y 20e siècle. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Gender Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Discrimination. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a African American women $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799467 650 7 $a Discrimination in law enforcement. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00895102 650 7 $a Marginality, Social. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01009156 650 7 $a Police. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068398 650 7 $a Race relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086509 650 7 $a Sex discrimination against women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114376 650 7 $a Sex discrimination in justice administration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114430 650 7 $a Urban policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01162489 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781469665061 830 0 $a Justice, power, and politics 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20230513010140.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=770F2DD6F15311ED9528572D34ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
