Abstract: What accounts for the alarming concentration of homicide among African Americans, both historically and in the contemporary city? This paper is part of a larger project seeking to explore the relationships among segregation, concentrated poverty, masculinity, and homicide as they have evolved between the 1940s and the 1990s. I am interested both in the history of homicide and in how it has changed over time and in using homicide as a way of reading the history of the city.
