'Spatializing Blackness: Architectures of Confinement + Black Masculinity in Chicago'

'In this talk, Rashad Shabazz, explores how carceral power and the techniques of containment were woven into the quotidian geographies of poor and working class Black people on Chicago's South Side. Through and examination of housing, policing, and the production of masculinity, this Shabazz demonstrates how the explosion of Black incarceration rates in the latter 20th century were enabled by the geography of incarceration at the beginning of the century. Shabazz is Associate Professor in the School of Social Transformation at Arizona State University.' -- +Brown University
