About this book

First published in 1981, Ethnic Segregation in Cities argues that race and ethnicity are fundamental to writing about the city, and that economic patterns adapt themselves to race and ethnicity rather than vice versa. The problem of ethnic segregation is a burning one for both geographers and sociologists - geographers because of the concern for all aspects of urban deprivation, and sociologists because they are discovering that space and spatial processes are important factors in influencing social segregation or assimilation. The book brings together some of the main contributors to the literature on spatial aspects of ethnicity from both sides of the Atlantic. A variety of evidence from New York, Detroit, Bradford and Blackburn address the question of whether choice on the path of ethnic members, or constraints imposed by the host society are determinant factors influencing residential segregation. This book will be of interest to students of sociology, human geography and urban studies.

Mixed Roots: Writers on Multiracial Identity & Both/And Belonging
<b>29 personal essays exploring mixed identity, belonging, family, racism, community and the paradoxical ways of being in the world</b> <p/><b>"An unprecedented ode to the wide range of mixed-root experiences and what is shared across difference. Required reading for anyone who has ever been asked what are you? I want everyone to read this."<br> --Melissa Febos, author of <i>Girlhood </i>and <i>The Dry Season</i></b> <p/>Multiracial people are everywhere--but so often their stories are oversimplified, overlooked, or left out of the narrative altogether. <i>Mixed Roots</i> collects 29 voices from different generations, geographies, and mixes of race and ethnicity. Combining powerful personal narratives with community-oriented perspectives, <i>Mixed Roots </i>explores themes of inherited belief systems, racism, whiteness, migration, language, trauma, ancestry, and healing. <p/>When society so often wants to divide us into either/or categories, <i>Mixed Roots</i> reminds us that multiracial experiences are complex and can be told in different ways. This anthology engages with the familiar questions of "what are you?" or "where do you belong?" with nuance, dispelling the idea that there is ever one right way to identify. In a time of increased polarization, <i>Mixed Roots</i> invites more of us to examine the historical legacies and harm caused by racism within ourselves and our communities. <p/>With compelling, intimate, lyrical and conversational prose, the voices in <i>Mixed Roots</i> honor the realities we've inherited around race, while pushing against old assumptions-- encouraging readers to embrace paradox and non-binary belonging.
