Black Violence/A Marxist View
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page research paper/essay that explores the social phenomena of black violence, and specifically black-on-black crime. The writer attempts to explain this violence using Marxist theory. In February of 2006, Coy Freeman, an African American resident of Chicago, was buckling his baby into a car seat, preparing to take his other three children to Parkman Elementary School, when a drive-by shooter opened fire. Freeman was shot through the eye, but eight-year-old Ariana and 6-year-old son, who is also named Coy, were both wounded (Sweeney and Donovan 6). The assassination attempt is alleged gang-related and, though Freeman has a criminal record, he was not known to be violent and he has denied being a gang member (Sweeney and Donovan 6). While the incidence of crime, in general, has gone down in recent years in Chicago, black-on-black crime has not. Marxist theory offers some possible explanations for why this should be so. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
