In the early 2000s, the New York City Police Department implemented policies that called for the aggressive use of “Stop, Question, and Frisk,” in neighborhoods deemed “high crime.” Drawing from approximately 3 years of intensive ethnographic fieldwork in and around three precincts in the southwest Bronx, the current research reveals how parenting youth who live in such neighborhoods is impacted by police activity.
