Examines the fabricated medical diagnosis of “excited delirium syndrome” and its use to justify and erase police violence against Black and Brown communities. Exposing excited delirium syndrome’s flawed diagnostic criteria, Aisha M. Beliso-De Jesús furthers understanding of the complex layers of medicalized state-sanctioned violence against people of color in the United States.
