How is the state produced? In what ways did enslaved African Americans shape modern governing practices? Ryan A. Quintana provocatively answers these questions by focusing on the everyday production of South Carolina's state space—its roads and canals, borders and boundaries, public buildings and military fortifications. Beginning in the early eighteenth century and moving through the post–War of 1812 internal improvements boom, Quintana highlights the surprising ways enslaved men and women sat at the center of South Carolina's earliest political development, materially producing the state's infrastructure and early governing practices, while also challenging and reshaping both through their day-to-day movements, from the mundane to the rebellious. Focusing on slaves' lives and labors, Quintana illuminates how black South Carolinians not only created the early state but also established their own extralegal economic sites, social and cultural havens, and independent communities along South Carolina's roads, rivers, and canals. Combining social history, the study of American politics, and critical geography, Quintana reframes our ideas of early American political development, illuminates the material production of space, and reveals the central role of slaves' daily movements (for their owners and themselves) to the development of the modern state.

An argument that Louisiana's criminal justice system, is a genocidal weapon that has historically targeted African American's in order to keep them marginalized and maintain white supremacy. Slave State is a collection of essays written by an innocent man convicted of murder and sentenced to serve out the balance of his natural life in the infamous Angola State Prison. The author is arrested in California in 1990 and transported to Louisiana where he finds himself in a surreal condition of confinement that resembles Louisiana as it existed in the early 1800's. Once he is placed back in slavery he learns that the political correctness and civility presented by whites in the U.S. is only an act. When he arrives at the Louisiana Penitentiary, he is met with a venomous racist system that most people assume died away years ago.
