SUMMARY:Virtual book talk with Margaret Burnham
DESCRIPTION:Margaret Burnham\, founding director of the Civil Rights and Re
 storative Justice Project at Northeastern University\, will discuss her re
 cent book\, By Hands Now Known: Jim Crow's Legal Executioners.\n\nThe bo

 to 1960 and shows the connections between the laws of slavery and the lega
 l system under Jim Crow in the late 19th and 20th Century South. Many of
  the cases involved rendition\, the legal process by which Southern states
  sought to return accused African Americans to Southern "justice." This pr
 ompted battles over questions of jurisdiction\, many right here in Detroit
