a law professor and executive director of the Charles Hamilton Houston Institute for Race and Justice at Harvard Law School, and Austin Sarat, a law professor at Amherst College, combine the most severe criminal punishment with the bugaboo of racial class and prejudice in their book From Lynch Mobs to the Killing State: Race and the Death Penalty in America (New York University Press, May 2006). It's all completely inscrutable, and if you're in the Lynch mob, perversely delightful. Soon a lynch mob, thinking he's a molester, is after him, in a chase scene right out of Buster Keaton's Seven Chances. |
