Klappentext
The Great Migration of African Americans from the South to northern and western cities between 1915 and 1970 fundamentally altered the political, social, and cultural landscapes of major cities like New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Detroit, and changed the country as well. By the late twentieth century, Black people were mayors, police chiefs, and school superintendents, at parity or overrepresented in municipal jobs in these and other cities, which were also hubs for Black literature, music, film, and politics.Since the 1970s, migration patterns have significantly shifted away from the major urban centers of the Great Migration, leaving some iconic Black communities replaced by mostly non-Black residents. Though many books have examined Black urban experiences in America, this is the first written by historians focusing on the post-Great Migration era. It is centered on numerous facets of Black life, including popular culture, policing, suburbanization, and political organizing across multiple cities. In this landmark volume, Jeffrey O. G. Ogbar and his contributors explore the last half century of African American urban history, covering a landscape transformed since the end of the Great Migration and demonstrating how cities remain dynamic into the twenty-first century.
Contributors are Stefan M. Bradley, Scot Brown, Tatiana M. F. Cruz, Tom Davies, LaShawn D. Harris, Maurice J. Hobson, Shannon King, Melanie D. Newport, Jeffrey O. G. Ogbar, Brian Purnell, J. T. Roane, Chanelle N. Rose, Benjamin Saracco, and Fiona Vernal.
