Amid aggressive surveillance and policing practices, Black Lives Matter has appeared—a social movement whose very name highlights collective resistance to pervasive dehumanization. Psychological studies find the persistent dehumanization of people of color and endorsement of legitimated violence against those dehumanized. As part of broken windows policing, people of color also disproportionately experience discretionary arrests, or charges for low‐level, nonviolent offenses legally recognized as noncriminal. Accordingly, drawing upon data from over 200 interviews and surveys, we report on New Yorkers’ experiences of dehumanization during discretionary arrests. In doing so, we introduce a new conceptual framework called “cumulative dehumanization,” to illuminate an ongoing state‐sanctioned, racialized dehumanization that is fundamentally cumulative, both temporally and spatially. We conceptualize cumulative dehumanization as: (a) an accumulation of systemic dehumanizing moments, experienced as an active condition of becoming; (b) a weathering of the racialized affective body, generating various modes of community dispossession; (c) a product and (re)producer of the material and ideological mechanisms upholding racial capitalism; and (d) a complementary accumulation of individual and collective resistance. Attending to amplified processes and consequences within the uneven power dynamics of daily policing practices, we connect everyday, state‐sanctioned dehumanization to cognitive, embodied, psychological, social, material, ideological, and political circuits.

日常警务中的累积非人性化：酌处逮捕的心理，情感和物质后果

在激进的监视和警务实践中，出现了“黑人生活问题” —一种社会运动，其名字突显了对普遍的非人道化的集体抵抗。心理学研究发现，有色人种持续遭受非人道化，并认可针对非人道化人群的合法暴力。作为残破的窗户警务的一部分，有色人种也遭受不适当的逮捕，或因法律上承认为非犯罪的低级，非暴力犯罪而受到指控。因此，我们利用200多次访谈和调查中的数据，报告了纽约人在任意逮捕期间的非人道化经历。为此，我们引入了一个称为“累积性非人化”的新概念框架，以阐明正在进行中的国家认可，在时间和空间上基本上是累积的种族化的非人类化。我们概念化累积的非人性化为：（a）经历过系统化的非人性化时刻的积累，成为活跃的条件；（b）种族化情感体的风化，引起了各种形式的社区剥夺；（c）维持种族资本主义的物质和意识形态机制的产物和（再生产者）；（d）个人抵抗力和集体抵抗力的互补积累。在日常警务实践的不平衡动力动态中，人们关注不断扩大的过程和后果，我们将经过国家认可的日常去人性化与认知，具体化，心理，社会，物质，意识形态和政治循环联系起来。
