When we talk about police and police reform, we speak the language of police legitimation through euphemism. So state sexual assault becomes \"body-cavity search,\" and ruthless beatings \"non-compliance deterrence.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In entries such as \"police dog,\" \"stop and frisk,\" and \"rough ride,\" the authors expose the way \"copspeak\" suppresses the true meaning and history of law enforcement. In field guide fashion, they reveal a world hidden in plain view. The book argues that a redefined language of policing might help us chart a future that's free. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Including explanations of newsmaking terms such as \"deadname,\" \"kettling,\" and \"qualified immunity,\" and a foreword by leading justice advocate Craig Gilmore.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Correia\u003c\/b\u003e is an Associate Professor in the Department of American Studies at the University of New Mexico.
