John Bardes
Americans often assume that slave societies had little use for prisons and police because slaveholders inflicted violence directly or through overseers. Mustering tens of thousands of overlooked arrest and prison records, John Bardes demonstrates the opposite: in parts of the South, enslaved and free people were jailed at astronomical rates.
