Primary and secondary deviance?

Edwin Lemert developed the idea of primary and secondary deviation as a way to explain the process of labeling. Primary deviance is any general deviance before the deviant is labeled as such. Secondary deviance is any action that takes place after primary deviance as a reaction to the institutions. When an actor commits a crime (primary deviance), however mild, the institution will bring social penalties down on the actor. However, punishment does not necessarily stop crime, so the actor might commit the same primary deviance again, bringing even harsher reactions from the institutions. At this point, the actor will start to resent the institution, while the institution brings harsher and harsher repression. Eventually, the whole community will stigmatize the actor as a deviant and the actor will not be able to tolerate this, but will ultimately accept his or her role as a criminal, and will commit criminal acts that fit the role of a criminal. Primary And Secondary Deviation is what causes people to become harder criminals. Primary deviance is the time when the person is labeled deviant through confession or reporting. Secondary deviance is deviance before and after the primary deviance. Retrospective labeling happens when the deviant recognizes his acts as deviant prior to the primary deviance, while prospective labeling is when the deviant recognizes future acts as deviant. The steps to becoming a criminal are: # Primary deviation. # Social penalties. # Secondary deviation. # Stronger penalties. # Further deviation with resentment and hostility towards punishers. # Community stigmatizes the deviant as a criminal. Tolerance threshold passed. # Strengthening of deviant conduct because of stigmatizing penalties. # Acceptance as role of deviant or criminal actor.

What was Los Angeles like in 1947?

In 1947 Men were being discharged from the military and relocating in LA from their original places of enlistment or draft. LA population was mostly Southern Whites, Blacks and Hispanics in segregates sections. Whites in the West Areas, Blacks and Hispanics in the East and South East areas, and the Japanese population was slowly returning. Central Ave was the principle location for entertainment for Blacks from 12 and Centrral to Slauson, and The Plantation in Watts.Emploment for Blacks were Auto industry in the Vernon area, Good Year Tire on Central, Some Civil Service, Postal, and City Tash Yards along with menial jobs. The Jpanese were returning to the gardening service. The popular churches the Black community were, Second Baptist, Independent, Mount Mariah, along with many store front churches coming into popularity.Segregation of the Police and Fire departments mantained their policies of assigning ethnic personnel to certain locations of their group classification, except White personnel that would work in all areas. There were pay-offs to certain officials to conduct gambling and after hour activity in the Central Ave community. The Schools were segregated in areas of ethnic density. Jefferson High was the predominant High School for Blacks and Hispanics, Carver Jr High, Fromally known as Mc Kinnley, was the school for mostly Blacks and Hipanics. The Change in demographics for Blacks became wides spread during the latter part of 1947 because of the large nujmber of discharged Blacks locating in the South Central Area and changing the econonmic conditions that permitted them to demand housing in the West Side Area near Lemert Park causing White Flight.I could go on, However I would be very time consumming
