Philadelphia serves as test case because of the richness of the data: DuBois's classic study, The Philadelphia Negro, newspapers, records of the criminal justice system and other local agencies, and the federal census. The author presents numerical details, along with many examples of the human stories--social and political--behind the statistics. Lane reveals how social and economic discrimination created a black criminal subculture.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dutty Boukman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41289387147416,"sku":"","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/3935\/8872\/products\/DSC_0406copy.jpg?v=1636678783","url":"https:\/\/duttyboukman.art\/products\/roots-of-violence-in-black-philadelphia-1860-1900-by-roger-lane-softcover-like-new","provider":"Dutty Boukman","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
