Jennifer Sdunzik explores this widespread phenomenon by examining how it played out in one midwestern community. Sdunzik merges state and communal histories, interviews and analyses of population data, and spatial and ethnographic materials to create a rich public history that reclaims Black contributions and history. She also explores the conscious and unconscious white actions that all but erased Black Americans--and the terror and exclusion used against them--from the history of many midwestern communities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e An innovative challenge to myth and perceived wisdom, \u003ci\u003eThe Geography of Hate\u003c\/i\u003e reveals the socioeconomic, political, and cultural forces that prevailed in midwestern towns and helps explain the systemic racism and endemic nativism that remain entrenched in American life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jennifer Sdunzik\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0252045424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780252045424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Illinois Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Jennifer Sdunzik","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46670528020735,"sku":"9780252045424","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e6d4dbb5-6d21-4993-92c5-7c32f1ee7d35.jpg?v=1741316967","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-geography-of-hate-jennifer-sdunzik-9780252045424","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
