“The criminalization of black property violence in the sixties, compared with the failure to assertively criminalize white interpersonal violence in the fifties, is worth remembering.”
Simon Balto, Occupied Territory: Policing Black Chicago from Red Summer to Black Power

“depriving prisoners of sleep, banging rubber hoses across a suspect’s abdomen, placing a box over an individual’s head and filling it with tear gas, applying acid to genitals, hanging prisoners upside down by their ankles or beating them with poles to the point of eyeball dislocation and blindness”
Simon Balto, Occupied Territory: Policing Black Chicago from Red Summer to Black Power

“while twice as many blacks than whites had been murdered and injured in the riot, twice as many blacks were arrested and indicted.”
