All of the essays offer well-researched, complex methodological and topical interventions that highlight the racialized implications of Jim Crow governance." --Journal of African American History "Crime and Punishment in the Jim Crow South brings fresh insights to our understanding of the development of racial disparities in law enforcement, incarceration, and capital punishment." --North Carolina Historical Review "These essays provide a nuanced and necessary picture of the racialized nature of southern law enforcement in the Jim Crow era beyond the common tropes of convict lease, the chain gang, and police complicity in local lynchings." --Journal of American History "Thoroughly researched, cogently argued, and well written. With its judicious blend of established and rising young scholars working at the cutting-edge of carceral studies, this breaks new ground."--Claudrena N. Harold, author of The Rise and Fall of the Garvey Movement in the Urban South, 19181942 "Given how often and how easily crime and punishment in America today is framed in terms of southern history--the 'New Jim Crow'--it is timely and important to have these deeply-researched, carefully argued essays to help us think in new ways about the connections between the Souths past and the nations present."Joseph Crespino, author of Atticus Finch, The Biography: Harper Lee, Her Father, and the Making of an American Icon
