Examining African American Deaths in Custody describes the actions that lead to the death of African Americans while they are detained or in the process of being detained by a law enforcement agent. This publication focuses on three core countries where Black deaths in custody appear to occur at higher rates. The text examines cases in America, Australia and South Africa. A final comparison is made between this occurrence in all three countries.

This book will be a seminal work that is informative, timely, and an essential reference book for academics, historians, professors, researchers, and more. During this era of cases like George Floyd, this book has an impact on how race is viewed and the concept of Examining African American Deaths in Custody.
