This research would not have been possible without generous funding from the National Science Foundation's Graduate Research Fellowship Program, the Wenner-Gren Foundation, the Charlotte Newcombe Foundation, and the Rackham Graduate School at the University of Michigan. A summer grant from the Anti-Discrimination Center in 2012 significantly influenced my research trajectory and I owe the ADC a special thanks. I am also indebted to the Graduate Employees' Organization at the University of Michigan for ensuring my access to health care and a living wage. Thanks also to the leadership and members of the Teamsters and the Greater Detroit Building and Construction Trades Council and many members of the Lecturers' Employee Organization; American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees; and the University of Michigan Skilled Trades Union who supported GEO during contract negotiations: We owe you one. Rosanne Crompton and Marcy Boughton literally kept me running through the whole process. Kathleen King and Diana Denny provided instrumental help and guidance as I learned to navigate the University; the external funding in my first year would never have materialized if not for a chance encounter with Diana in the kitchen and her knowledge of the existence of a letter in a file. I am indebted to Steve Volk, who, at Oberlin College, taught me the historian's craft with incredible generosity and with a love for teaching and learning. Much of this dissertation is based on research in archives and in physical settings where access can be a significant challenge. I am extraordinarily grateful to the people who opened doors to me at the Florida Department of Corrections, the Florida Commission on Offender
