Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books
about the hidden lives of ordinary things. We all wear hoods: the
Grim Reaper, Red Riding Hood, torturers, executioners and the
executed, athletes, laborers, anarchists, rappers, babies in
onesies, and anyone who's ever grabbed a hoodie on a chilly day.
Alison Kinney's Hood explores the material and symbolic vibrancy of
this everyday garment and political semaphore, which often protects
the powerful at the expense of the powerless-with deadly results.
Kinney considers medieval clerics and the Klan, anti-hoodie
campaigns and the Hooded Man of Abu Ghraib, the Inquisition and the
murder of Trayvon Martin, uncovering both the hooded perpetrators
of violence and the hooded victims in their sights. Object Lessons
is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.
