Leslie M. Harris & Clarence Lang 
Black Urban History at the Crossroads [EPUB ebook] 
Race and Place in the American City

Apoio

Drawing on significant recent scholarship on African American urban life over three centuries, <i>Black Urban History at the Crossroads </i>bridges disparate chronological, regional, topical, and thematic perspectives on the Black urban experience beginning with the Atlantic slave trade. Across ten cutting-edge chapters, leading scholars explore the many ways that urban Black people across the United States built their own communities; crafted their own strategies for self-determination; and shaped the larger economy, culture, and politics of the urban environment and of their cities, regions, and nation. This volume not only highlights long-running changes over time and space, from preindustrial to emerging postindustrial cities, but also underscores the processes by which one era influences the emergence of the next moment in Black urban history.
