A propos de cet article

Hardcover. Hyper-criminalization and the normalization of violence was an integral aspect of Robert Weides formative years growing up in Los Angeles in the 1980s and 1990s, where SureNo, Crip, and Blood gangs maintained a precarious coexistence, often punctuated by racialized gang violence. His insider status informs Divide & Conquer, which considers how the capitalist economy, the race concept, and nationalist ideology have made gang members the instruments of their own oppression, resulting in racialized sectarian conflicts spanning generations between African American and Latino gangs in Los Angeles and Californias prisons. While gang members may fail to appreciate the deeper historical and conceptual foundations of these conflicts, they rarely credit naked bigotry as the root cause. As Weide asserts, they divide themselves according to inherited groupist identities, thereby turning them against one another in protracted blood feuds across gang lines and racial lines. Weide explores both the historical foundations and the conceptual and cultural boundaries and biases that divide gang members across racial lines, detailing case studies of specific racialized gang conflicts between SureNo, Crip, and Blood gangs. Weide employs mixed-methods research, having spent nearly a decade on ethnographic fieldwork and conducted over one hundred formal interviews with gang members and gang enforcement officers concerning taboo subjects like prison and gang politics, and transracial gang membership. Divide & Conquer concludes with encouraging developments in recent years, as gang members themselves, on their own volition, have intervened to build solidarity and bring racialized gang conflicts between them to an end. "This book reveals the roots of interracial conflict between gangs in Los Angeles. The author argues that violence and mistrust between racialized gangs are the result of state and media efforts to popularize racial ideology to serve capitalistic and colonial interests and interrupt class solidarity"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
