This doctoral thesis will identify strategic patterns in the response to Black political expression in USprisons, and in particular the penal techniques employed to prevent political organisation. This will seekto fill a distinct gap in literature regarding the suppression of Black imprisoned people's political voices,an issue that remains as prevalent today as at the start of this study. The prison has long beenrecognised as a significant space for political expression, however historical research has thus farneglected to examine the systematic response of authorities to this. I hypothesize that the state'srepression of imprisoned political activists adapted to respond to changes in the methods and focus ofprotests. State interventions will be traced over the period from 1964-2020, utilising a mixed methodapproach, beginning with a quantitative analysis of penal techniques and prison demographies,combined with qualitative research using archival and published sources.

这篇博士论文将确定在美国监狱中应对黑人政治表达的策略模式，特别是用于防止政治组织的刑罚技术。这将试图填补文学中关于压制黑人囚犯政治声音的明显空白，这一问题在今天和本研究开始时一样普遍。长期以来，监狱一直被认为是政治表达的重要空间，然而历史研究迄今为止一直忽视了当局对此的系统反应。我推测，政府对被监禁的政治活动家的镇压是为了适应抗议活动方式和焦点的变化。将采用混合方法追踪1964-2020年期间的国家干预措施，首先对刑罚技术和监狱人口进行定量分析，结合利用档案和出版资料进行定性研究。
