Simone Browne's _Dark Matters_ is a sweeping analysis of the surveillance of blackness from the Middle Passage to post-9/11 airport security theater. Browne's evocative use of seemingly disparate textual examples creates a unique archive that operate as entry points for (hopefully) further scholarship on race and surveillance. While the chapters could feel disjointed with a lack of transitions, the book overwhelms with evidence and insight.
