But what stories have been ignored? In Evidence of Things Seen, fourteen of the most innovative crime writers working today cast a light on the cases that give crucial insight into our society. This anthology pulls back the curtain on how crime itself is a by-product of America's systemic harms and inequalities. And in doing so, it reveals how the genre of true crime can be a catalyst for social change. These works combine brilliant storytelling with incisive cultural examinations--and challenge each of us to ask what justice should look like" --|cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Crime. 650 0 Crime|vCase studies. 650 0 True crime stories|xSocial aspects. 650 0 Crime and the press|xSocial aspects. 655 7 True crime stories.|2lcgft 655 7 Case studies.|2lcgft 655 7 Essays.|2lcgft 700 1 Weinman, Sarah,|eeditor. 700 1 Chaudry, Rabia,|ewriter of introduction. 700 12 Lowery, Wesley,|d1990-|tBrutal lynching. 700 12 Van der Leun, Justine.|t"No choice but to do it." 700 12 Hobbes, Michael.|tGolden age of white-collar crime. 700 12 Morin, Brandi.|tPicturesque California conceals a crisis of missing women. 700 12 Jeong, May.|tHow the Atlanta spa shootings--the victims, the survivors--tell a story of America. 700 12 Knox, Amanda.|tWho owns Amanda Knox? 700 12 Moskovitz, Diana.|tTie a tourniquet on your heart. 700 12 Jurjevics, R.
