RECONCEPTUALIZING PUBLIC HOUSING: NOT AS A POLICED SITE OF CONTROL, BUT AS A SYSTEM OF SUPPORT |
28 Georgetown Journal on Poverty Law and Policy 95 (Fall, 2020) |
America's system of mass incarceration is the product of the over-policing of low-income people of color, often for minor offenses. A critical site of entrenched policing takes place in the public housing context. Public housing residents live under a system of surveillance in which they are constantly monitored and policed.
