A leading voice in African American and Black women’s history, Harris is an Associate Professor at Michigan State University and former Assistant Editor of the *Journal of African American History*. In this powerful and deeply personal book, Harris draws from her own experience as Bumpurs’s former neighbor to examine the 1984 police killing that sparked a movement.
