    Introduction: "Cruel Stack O'Lee": trickster badness and the fight against subordination in African American vernacular culture -- Original gangsta culture: fortune economy and the criminal mediation of Black entry into urban modernity -- Sin city cinema: the underworld race films of Oscar Micheaux and Ralph Cooper -- Hustlers in the house of literature: Julian Mayfield, Chester Himes, and the Black literary ghetto -- From Up tight! to Dolemite: the changing politics of baadasssss cinema -- Keeping it reel: from Goines to gangsta -- Epilogue: global gangsta: life in death.

Unearthing the overlooked history of art that has often seemed at odds with the politics of civil rights and racial advancement, Under a Bad Sign explores the rationale behind this tradition of criminal self-representation from the Harlem Renaissance to contemporary gangsta culture.
