Recognized International Leader and Speaker on Race, Gender and Ethnic Diversity and Inclusion and Implicit Bias
Professor Sherman-Stokes asserts "This Article takes as a starting point that detention and deportation are kinds of “violence,” as theorized by Angélica Cházaro and others. The legal violence framework importantly acknowledges the violence inherent in--and essential to--the functioning of the current immigration legal regime. It also underscores the role of the law in enabling and legitimizing this violence. Because violence has the power to shape “space and place,” here I argue that violence can be theorized not only across time, but across space. That this violence is not only temporal, but geographic, and this matters insofar as we hope to end it. In this Article, I strive to “illuminate the terror” of this violence, especially the “mundane and quotidian” kinds of this violence in an effort to move us closer to liberation and justice. This Article argues that the increasing digitization of immigration enforcement and surveillance is part of an expansive, and still growing, geography of violence and control. This violence is also racialized. Black immigrants are disproportionately more likely to be detained, and if they are released on bond, their bonds are likely to be higher. Black immigrants are also more likely to be shackled through ICE's so-called “alternatives to detention” program."
