{"product_id":"imagining-transit-kristi-siegel-9780820455860","title":"Imagining Transit: Race, Gender, and Transportation Politics in Los Angeles","description":"Using an analysis of the history of Los Angeles's streetcar and highway systems, Sikivu Hutchinson argues that the cultural geography of transportation has had a compelling influence upon the construction of race, gender, and urban subjectivity in the postmodern city. She highlights the influence of American anti-urbanism upon visions of the city during the Great Migration and World War II eras. Proceeding from the premise that the creation of city spaces are informed by collective cultural memory, Hutchinson explores how the decline of public transportation and the rise of the automobile have shaped African American communities and cultures in Los Angeles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kristi Siegel,Sikivu Hutchinson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820455865\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820455860\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/21\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Kristi Siegel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48441364447487,"sku":"9780820455860","price":44.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0dfb9abb-bd76-4ec2-882c-dd62f0a916c5.jpg?v=1777190422","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/imagining-transit-kristi-siegel-9780820455860","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
