This is a book of borderlands and intersections, a cautionary tale about the dangers of putting infrastructure before culture, and a coming-of-age story about power and identity. The colonial history of southern California is interwoven through Adonia Lugo's story of growing up Chicana in Orange County, becoming a bicycle anthropologist, and co-founding Los Angeles's hallmark open streets cycling event, CicLAvia, along the way. When she takes on racism in the world of national bicycle advocacy in Washington, DC, she finds her voice and heads back to LA to organize the movement for environmental justice in active transportation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn the tradition of City of Quartz, this book will forever change the way you see Los Angeles, race and class in the United States, and the streets and people around you wherever you live.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lugo Phd Adonia E.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1621067645\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781621067641\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Microcosm Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/09\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/23\/2018","brand":"Lugo Phd Adonia E.","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44133332123903,"sku":"9781621067641","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2e9832a4-8298-4a23-b3b1-cd4ef3b9c96d.jpg?v=1687485474","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bicyclerace-lugo-phd-adonia-e-9781621067641","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
