| Zusammenfassung: | This article describes the ways in which the formerly incarcerated participants understand "hustling" and the "hustle." Based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted at Second Chance, a New York metropolitan area agency that serves formerly incarcerated persons and those who have had police contact, this article attempts to situate "hustling" within the carceral state. "Hustling" has a range of meanings. It is a form of labor performed to acquire material goods - the ability to "hustle" functions as a marker of an approved masculinity. "Hustling" also reflects power relations and can serve as a framework of reference. The participants in the study were routinely "hustled," and they expressed concern that they were being "hustled" in the context of the programming offered at Second Chance. The article concludes with a discussion of the implications of the findings for reentry programming. |
