Reshaping True Crime Stories from the Global Margins

Focusing on minoritized and marginalized groups around the world, this interdisciplinary project aims to shed light on the misinterpretation, misrepresentation, and erasure of the lives and deaths of the most vulnerable members of society.

Reshaping True Crime Stories from the Global Margins: Voicing the Less Dead uses criminal cases, news stories, and media analysis from around the globe to reflect upon the thousands and thousands of missing and murdered individuals from marginalized communities. Contributors ask readers to consider: How do we see these human beings compared to others, and how are they viewed by law enforcement and government officials? These vulnerable populations are often rendered invisible, so how do the media decide what story is told to the public and which one is neglected? Drawing on Steven Eggers concept of the less dead, this collection provides an interdisciplinary, global perspective on how vulnerable groups are erased and demonstrates ways their stories can be made visible.
