Glynn shares real accounts of the brutalisation and dehumanisation that slaves were subjected to. He provides an evidence-based backdrop to the powerful points he makes about the ties of slavery to present-day systemic racism. Glynn also shares evidence of an ex-slave providing testimony in court; perhaps you were - as Glynn was - unaware that ex-slaves were permitted to testify in court. In sharing this account, Glynn highlights that the version of the history of the UK’s justice system most commonly cited is limited and excludes historic and significant Black voices. We often learn of White trailblazers or ‘elite’ Black figures active in the abolitionist movement but seem to have collective amnesia when it comes to Black activists, writers, speakers, potent forces for social progress for centuries. Glynn argues that unless we admit - academically and in society at large - that \"the historical other’\" continue to be reproduced in modern systems of oppression, \"a continuing legacy of racialized dominance\" will be perpetuated.' \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMia Edwards\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cem\u003ePolicy and Communications Officer, Alliance for Youth Justice\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSECTION 1 Locating the Black Presence in Crime and Punishment\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrologue \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 1 Towards a Black (Historical) Criminological Imagination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 2 Researching the Black Presence in Crime and Punishment \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 3 Gathering the Information \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 4 Don’t Gaslight Me, Slavery Matters \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eSECTION 2 Trials and Transcripts \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 5 The Case of Arthur William Hodge \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 6 The Case of John Kimber \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 7 The Case of Sir Thomas Picton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 8 The Case of William Woodcock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 9 The Case of John Hogan \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eSECTION 3 Black Voices Speak \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 10 Visible Voices \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvocation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Case of James Sommersett – The Negro Case \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOlaudah Equiano \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Prince \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOttobah Cugoano \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 11 Activists, Participants, and Rulers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvocation \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWilliam Davidson – Cato Street Conspiracy \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWilliam Cuffay \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Chartist Movement \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobert Wedderburn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Ten-Point Program \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Police Officers \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobert Branford, 1817–1869: London Police Superintendent \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohn Kent 190\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRichard ‘King Dick’ Crafus \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCHAPTER 12 McNaughton and Black Rage \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEpilogue Criminologist as Historian\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51018051977559,"sku":"9780367743963","price":36.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780367743963.jpg?v=1750775479","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/invisible-voices-9780367743963","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
