Thank you Diana. My work is concerned with the construction of the carceral state in Jim Crow SC, a harrowing yet textbook case of American fascism and the end product of another trinitarian collaboration between vigilantes, law enforcement, and the judiciary. I can think of no better way to succinctly describe its essence than through Haque: "Ultimately, fascism in all its forms is about the [self-declared] pure and true having the power of life and death over the impure and faithless."
