Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prohibition Movement in Its Broader Bearings Upon Our Social, Commercial and Religious Liberties: Addresses and Writings Of course, I am neither a minister nor an expert physician. But I belong to a family whose members for many generations have indulged in stimulants, and I do so myself for diverse reasons. Firstly, because I have always been accustomed to them; secondly, because I like them, and because they have wrought me no harm; and lastly, because I was taught by a Chris tian sect, whose standing among religious denomina tions is not inferior to that of the church to which the reverend gentleman himself belongs, that the moderate use of stimulants is sanctioned by the revealed scrip tures, and can injure no normally healthy being.

Book Politics  Police and Crime in New York During Prohibition

Download or read book Politics Police and Crime in New York During Prohibition written by Francesco Landolfi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-22 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to highlight the causes why the Prohibition Era led to an evolution of the New York mob from a rural, ethnic and small-scale to an urban, American and wide-scale crime. The temperance project, advocated by the WASP elite since the early nineteenth century, turned into prohibition only after the end of WWI with the enactment of the Eighteenth Amendment. By considering the success that war prohibition made to the soldiers' psychophysical condition, Congress aimed to shift this political move even to civil society. So it was that the Italian, Irish and Jewish mobs took the chance to spread their bribe system to local politics due to the lucrative alcohol bootlegging. New York became the core of the national anti-prohibition, where the smuggling from Canada and Europe merged into the legendary Manhattan nightclubs and speakeasies. With the coming of the Great Depression, the Republican Party was aware about the failure of this political measure, leading to the making of a new corporate underworld. The book is addressed to historians of New York, historians of crime and historians of modern America as well as to an audience of readers interested in the history of the Prohibition Era.

Book Unequal under Law

    Book Details:
  • Author : Doris Marie Provine
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2008-09-15
  • ISBN : 0226684784
  • Pages : 432 pages

Download or read book Unequal under Law written by Doris Marie Provine and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Race is clearly a factor in government efforts to control dangerous drugs, but the precise ways that race affects drug laws remain difficult to pinpoint. Illuminating this elusive relationship, Unequal under Law lays out how decades of both manifest and latent racism helped shape a punitive U.S. drug policy whose onerous impact on racial minorities has been willfully ignored by Congress and the courts. Doris Marie Provine’s engaging analysis traces the history of race in anti-drug efforts from the temperance movement of the early 1900s to the crack scare of the late twentieth century, showing how campaigns to criminalize drug use have always conjured images of feared minorities. Explaining how alarm over a threatening black drug trade fueled support in the 1980s for a mandatory minimum sentencing scheme of unprecedented severity, Provine contends that while our drug laws may no longer be racist by design, they remain racist in design. Moreover, their racial origins have long been ignored by every branch of government. This dangerous denial threatens our constitutional guarantee of equal protection of law and mutes a much-needed national discussion about institutionalized racism—a discussion that Unequal under Law promises to initiate.
