And All the Pieces Matter: Thoughts on the Wire and the Criminal Justice System
And All the Pieces Matter: Thoughts on The Wire and the Criminal Justice System Susan A. Bandes* "Whatever it was, they don't teach it in law school."' I. INTRODUCTION The standard police procedural, even including great dramas like NYPD Blue and Hill Street Blues, adheres to time-honored narrative conventions. It focuses on good, if sometimes imperfect, cops trying to find the real bad guys-the perpetrators-and bring them to justice. The episode begins when a crime ruptures the social fabric, and ends when guilt is determined and things are put to right. The standard procedural is concerned mainly with individual fault and individual heroism. It does not raise disquieting questions about the criminal justice system, the legal system, or the social and political arrangements that lead to a permanent underclass. There are eight million stories in the Naked City,2 and in the police procedural, every one of them stands on its own. This standard cop show narrative reflects and reaffirms a deeply ingrained, reassuring view of the world. The Wire is a different kind of television. It aims not to reassure but to unsettle, or as David Simon once put it, "to pick[] a fight."3 On its surface a police procedural, The Wire has been aptly described as a portrayal of "the social, political, and economic life of an American city with the scope, observational precision, and moral vision of great literature." Unlike the standard police procedural, which presents and resolves a discrete problem every week, The * Distinguished Research Professor, DePaul University College of Law. -
Discovering Moral Imagination Along the Wire. (2014)
SOLÉR, MICHELLE LOWE, Ph.D. All the Pieces Matter: Discovering Moral Imagination Along The Wire. (2014). Directed by Dr. Svi Shapiro. 304 pp. This dissertation is an investigation into the tool of moral imagination in the service of social justice. Supported by the philosophies of David Purpel, Maxine Greene, and John Dewey, this analysis is engaged through six themes examined through the text of David Simon’s series, The Wire. These themes supply a foundation for how we might more thoroughly engage with moral imagination on a daily basis because there is a crisis in our culture around how we value the lives of all people. Themes presented in this discussion are: (1) The idea that everybody matters; (2) A changing notion of truth; (3) Thoughtlessness and banality; (4) Wide-awakeness and not taking things for granted; (5) Asking critical questions; and lastly, (6) People claiming responsibility. Applying these themes to specific textual examples excerpted from a dramatized television serial creates a space to discuss prophetic in- betweenness to interrogate and examine situations of systemic dysfunction and economic injustice outside of a fictional space.

The Black Image in the White Mind: Educational Consequences of Media Racism
THE BLACK IMAGE IN THE WHITE MIND: EDUCATIONAL CONSEQUENCES OF MEDIA RACISM Sheldon A. Lanier A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education in the School of Education. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Kathleen Brown Dana Thompson-Dorsey Misti Williams © 2017 Sheldon A. Lanier ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Sheldon A. Lanier: The Black Image in the White Mind: Educational Consequences of Media Racism (Under the direction of Kathleen Brown) In the United States of America, Black male students often face a cultural disconnect when entering classrooms today. As a result, outcomes for these students, including academic ones, are both alarming and reprehensible. It is conceivable that a link exists between the exposure to negative racial portrayals of Black males in the media, teachers’ perceptions of their Black male students, and the negative treatments of Black males that result. These perceptions are important when examining how they can affect school policies and practices institutionally. Given the multitude of structures that help shape the negative outcomes of Black males in this country, mixed methods on both quantitative and qualitative inquiry were used to explore and examine the following questions: 1) How are Black males portrayed in the HBO original series, The Wire? 2) Do these portrayals reify (or, not) stereotypes of Black males in the United States? 3) How might these portrayals cultivate White female teachers’ perceptions and subsequent treatment of Black male students? The Wire was used as the media content sample due to the vast amount of Black male actors in lead or prominent recurring roles. -

Police Violence in The Wire Jonathan Masur† and Richard H. McAdams†† INTRODUCTION Police brutality—the unsanctioned, unlawful use of force by police against unarmed (and often defenseless) civilians—is one of the recur- ring motifs of The Wire.1 The violence occurs in a variety of settings: occasionally the victim of the police brutality has done something to precipitate it (though the brutality is never justified), but more often the violence is unprovoked and senseless.2 Some police are one-time wrongdoers; others are repeat offenders. Some officers participate in the actual beatings, while others only cover up for the actions of their fellow officers. But in sum, the violence is regular and recurring, if not omnipresent. In this respect, The Wire is not dissimilar from other filmic depictions of police, such as NYPD Blue. What is different is the cast of police officers who are involved in police brutality throughout the show. -
