For those of you who were unable to log in during our first scheduled Zoom meeting, I will try to upload the recordings shortly. Wednesday’s meeting will be asynchronous, meaning that we’ll all likely be logging in (to Slack) and discussing the material at different times over the next twenty-four hours or so.
Prep
- Kevin M. Kruse, ‘What does a traffic jam in Atlanta have to do with segregation? Quite a lot’. New York Times Magazine (14 August)
In Class
Rather than meeting online at a given time Wednesday, you have two days to do the assigned reading as well as review Chapter 5 in our textbook, then join the online, ongoing chat in Slack. Detailed instructions for the exercise can be found HERE.
For Next Time
- Matthew Desmond and Mustafa Emirbayer (2016), Ch. 6 (‘Crime and Punishment’): ‘The Rise of the American Prison’; ‘Fear’
