Reviews

Thrillingly unique and meticulously researched, Glynn provides an urgent re-imagination of criminology as we know it. - David Lammy, MP Glynn makes an impassioned plea to locate the historical within the contemporary and black presence within the absence. The collation of historical sources invite the reader to envision an illuminating black historical criminological imagination that offers an important disciplinary contribution. - Professor Coretta Phillips, London School of Economics and Political Science Black people's presence in the history of criminal justice in the UK suffers from a fate even worse than the enormous condescension of posterity that E P Thompson says was imposed on the English working class. With this book Glynn supplies a corrective as he rescues black activists, advocates, revolutionaries, writers and artists from the oblivion of white erasure. Out of the archives rise the voices of black people from the 17th 18th and 19th century. Court transcripts, crime registers, slave trades and other sources provide a presence that Glynn fashions into an important narrative. It is a narrative against condescension and oppression that points to a richer future for criminology. - Rod Earle, Senior Lecturer in Youth Justice, The Open University
