Policing the Black Man: Arrest, Prosecution, and Imprisonment by Angela J. Davis

3.0

Like others, I came into the book expecting a collection of essays edited by Angela Y. Davis (my fault for missing the middle initial), so if you're looking for her abolitionary perspective, you'll be very disappointed. There's a solid range of essays and perspectives, but the underlying current of "most cops are good actually" leaves a bad aftertaste.
