It doesn?t take firsthand experience to learn the meaning of "pain compliance" or "rough ride". Police: A Field Guide is an illustrated handbook to the methods, mythologies, and history that animate today?s police. It is a survival manual for encounters with cops and police logic, whether it arrives in the shape of "officer friendly", "Tasers", "curfews", "non-compliance", or reformist discourses about so-called "bad apples". In a series of short chapters, each focusing on a single term, such as the "beat", "order", "badge", "throw-down weapon", and much more, authors David Correia and Tyler Wall present a guide that reinvents and demystifies the language of policing in order to better prepare activists?and anyone with an open mind?on one of the key issues of our time: police brutality. In doing so, they begin to chart a future free of this violence?and of police.
