"The Black Butterfly: The Harmful Politics of Race and Space in America"

Publisher: Johns Hopkins University Press Shop: https://a.co/d/6J3YgbM... ISBN: 978-1421439877 Category: African-American history

But there is reason to hope. Throughout the book, Brown offers a clear five-step plan for activists, nonprofits, and public officials to achieve racial equity. Not content to simply describe and decry urban problems, Brown offers up a wide range of innovative solutions to help heal and restore redlined Black neighborhoods, including municipal reparations. Persuasively arguing that, since urban apartheid was intentionally erected, it can be intentionally dismantled, The Black Butterfly demonstrates that America cannot reflect that Black lives matter until we see how Black neighborhoods matter.
