Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter › peer-review

Abstract

This chapter unpacks the importance of critically assessing epistemology in criminology. I utilize some examples from my journey in criminology to critique mainstream epistemic frameworks in the discipline. I argue for a future of Black radical epistemologies while also foregrounding the importance of the self and marginalized histories and traditions.
