Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In his first year working in Los Angeless Skid Row, Forrest Stuart was stopped on the street by police fourteen times. Usually for doing little more than standing there. Juliette, a woman he met during that time, has been stopped by police well over one hundred times, arrested upward of sixty times, and has given up more than a year of her life serving week-long jail sentences. Her most common crime? Simply sitting on the sidewalkan arrestable offense in LA. Why? What purpose did those arrests serve, for society or for Juliette? How did we reach a point where weve cut support for our poorest citizens, yet are spending ever more on policing and prisons? Thats the complicated, maddening story that Stuart tells in Down, Out and Under Arrest, a close-up look at the hows and whys of policing poverty in the contemporary United States. What emerges from Stuarts years of fieldworknot only with Skid Row residents, but with the police charged with managing themis a tragedy built on mistakes and misplaced priorities more than on heroes and villains. He reveals a situation where a lot of people on both sides of this issue are genuinely trying to do the right thing, yet often come up short. Sometimes, in ways that do serious harm. At a time when distrust between police and the residents of disadvantaged neighborhoods has never been higher, Stuarts book helps us see where weve gone wrong, and what steps we could take to begin to change the lives of our poorest citizensand ultimately our society itselffor the better. A close-up look at the hows and whys of policing poverty in the contemporary United States. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
