概要
During the 70s, Hamilton, Ohio, was filled with smiling children and parents excited for their futures. It was poised to be the next rapidly industrializing city, with a union-strong working class and the determination of Black excellence. It stood as a demographic marker for the nation, an index of everyday life and politics. Every four years presidential candidates held rallies and took press photos in the historically Black neighborhood, the Second Ward. And yet, as the late 20th century took hold, it became the place where many of the boys Nicole R. Fleetwood knew growing up have killed or been killed.
Situated in what used to be a vibrant Black Midwest community, Between the River and the Railroad Tracks is a record of Fleetwood’s life and a portrait of a place in transition. The Second Ward would be devastated by hyper-policing, crime, and drugs. The Black and white working-class core of the town would replace their union affiliation with a religious fervor, praying for better days.
From a leading scholar whose work has been hailed as “profoundly revisionist” (NBCC) and “elucidating” (MacArthur Foundation), Between the River and the Railroad Tracks braids Fleetwood’s indelible story with the narrative of forgotten Black midwestern communities for an unforgettable portrait of the working-class America Hillbilly Elegy overlooked.

“Profoundly revisionist.”—National Book Critics Circle
“[An] absorbing book…Fleetwood seeks to revise the mainstream media narrative.”—New York Times Book Review
“Elucidating the cultural and aesthetic significance of visual art created by incarcerated people.”—MacArthur Foundation
“[Fleetwood] brings together an impressive array of paintings, sculptures, murals, and photos that speak to the impact of incarceration on American life…In amplifying the stories of those marked by incarceration, she makes visible the individuals and families the carceral state has tried so hard to disappear and silence.”—Los Angeles Review of Books
“[An] ambitious book…Fleetwood deftly weaves personal narrative together with nuanced readings of artworks created by incarcerated people…She models how creative expression can build the coalitions necessary for imagining and realizing a more just society.”—Smithsonian
“An urgently political text…Fleetwood’s analysis follows a narrative arc that moves across artistic mediums and within the physical architecture of prison itself…Marking Time moves fluidly between this art historical survey and a sharp attention to the social apparatuses that have enabled the very foundation of the prison state.”—The Nation
“Marking Time is a tremendous achievement… It is the kind of book that stays with you long after you finish, inspiring change in us all.”—Elizabeth Hinton, author of America on Fire
