Settler-colonial theory is a relatively new field of scholarship that interrogates the destruction of Indigenous laws, ways of knowing, and connections to place to make way for a new settler futurity. This futurity is particularly pronounced in cities, where Indigenous peoples have been rendered almost completely invisible and where their opportunities to shape urban development are highly circumscribed. We use settler-colonial theory, as well as Indigenous scholars’ responses to it, to extend ideas of belonging and becoming in urban planning and placemaking. We turn to the theory and practice of co-production as one possible intervention into how the relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous placemakers could be conceived and enacted in the urban environment.

Neighborhood change and conflicts in Queens, New York Abstract: The literature on planning in immigrant communities has been one based on the premise that immigrants are different from native-born people, and therefore planning for immigrant communities must therefore also be different. In this article, we challenge that premise through a discussion of a set of neighborhood developments and conflicts in Queens, New York, the most diverse county in the United States. We root those conflicts not in different cultural practices, but in the working of racial capitalism. The stories in Queens are stories not of conflicts of identity, they are conflicts of class; even if those class conflicts are inherently racialized.

It is based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 2013–2016 in the city of Malmö, an important site of pro-migrant and anti-racist activism in Sweden. Examples discussed in the paper concern the prevalence of highly educated women among the activists, the engagement of LGBTQ activists, and the fact that many activists themselves have migrant backgrounds. The alliances, friendships, and alternative structures they forge are analyzed with regard to two groups of precarious migrants in Malmö: the so-called undocumented migrants; and the Roma migrants from southeastern Europe. The paper shows how radical activism contributes to a solidarity-based ethnic diversity in the city that opposes the growing anti-immigrant stance in Sweden on the national level.

We situate these investments within state-led gentrification that exacerbates racial disparities by expanding White privilege in Black neighborhoods and reshaping racial geographies. While supporters rationalize streetcars as economic development strategies, we contextualize modern streetcars within a broader framework of colorblind neoliberalism. We advance the concept of colorblind transit planning to codify a critique of current practices and advance an argument that colorblind transit planning minimizes the ongoing salience of institutionalized racism and exacerbates existing racial geographies and experiences of race, symbolically and materially reproducing a city of exclusion. Our findings caution against further public investment in streetcars, as they contribute to state-led gentrification and private accumulation, rather than address unequal modern public transit systems.

The third ghetto shares some of the characteristics of the first and second ghettos—namely, the racial and economic segregation of the resident population. However, it also reveals notable, contemporary features. While the second ghetto was not deprived of public investment such as CHA developments, schools, police stations, and other public works, the third ghetto, in contrast, is a vacuum of private and public investment. It is also increasingly separated, spatially, from neighborhoods of rising prosperity. This disinvestment has created the underlying conditions for poor and working-class Black residents to feel either heavily policed or abandoned. This article traces the national and local sources of the neoliberal urban reforms of the 1990s and 2000s that ushered in a third ghetto in Chicago.

But precisely how does it matter? How have the pervasive and enduring modalities of racism (especially anti-Blackness) shaped the American metropolis over the last decades? Several influential attempts to answer these questions have focused heavily on racism’s momentous impacts on housing and related spatial practices. Such accounts have garnered intensified attention with the appearance of Richard Rothstein’s widely heralded The Color of Law. My central contention is that most conventional treatments of how racism impacted mid-century housing and spatial practices (including Rothstein’s) are deeply flawed. While almost obsessively centering racism as determinative, they nevertheless underestimate how fundamental it is to America’s institutions. I focus particularly on market institutions as they shape residential property values. Doing so reveals both a significant historical rereading of mid-century urban America’s highly racialized housing and spatial practices, as well as a more powerful account of ongoing racial dispossessions.

Author-X-Name-Last: Fallon Title: Reproducing race in the gentrifying city: A critical analysis of race in gentrification scholarship Abstract: While the term gentrification in an American context often incorporates racial turnover, the role of race in gentrification remains undertheorized. Employing a critical race lens, this study explores the historical relationship between race and gentrification in academic studies. I conduct a systematic review and a discourse analysis of 331 empirical studies of gentrification from 1970–2019. Findings show that although studies frequently employ racial categories, they do so in imprecise ways, subsuming race under class. Race-based theory is rare; race is primarily used as a variable of measure to examine conflict-oriented outcomes, such as displacement. This creates oppositional and homogenizing racialized typologies of “poor minority incumbents” and “wealthy White newcomers,” which remain steady despite an increasingly complex urban landscape. I argue that this limits our ability to understand how race, class, and power operate in space and underscores the need for a more clearly defined role of race within gentrification that focuses on positionality and power in lieu of a groupist emphasis on antagonistic racial categorization.

To fill this gap, oral histories utilizing the critical race theory lens were conducted with Puerto Rican women who were part of the Puerto Rican Agenda—a think tank of community leaders within the Humboldt Park area, where Puerto Ricans have concentrated historically. The oral histories covered topics from their migration story to their leadership development to their struggles creating a more just city. The counterstories of three Latina pioneras—Hilda Frontany, Aida Maisonet Giachello, and Ada Lopez—are told to highlight how their identity led them to “shape change” not only in their own lives and families but their communities and beyond.

Author-X-Name-Last: Sweet Title: Anti-Blackness/Nativeness and erasure in Mexico: Black feminist geographies and Latin American decolonial dialogues for U.S. urban planning Abstract: Latin American decolonial scholarship highlights the importance of time, space, and relationship variables in theoretical frameworks, notably different from white-settler philosophical underpinnings that rely on objectivity and modernity. Understanding race and gender in these frameworks has been elusive. I expand urban planning’s decolonial project to earnestly engage with race and gender through expanding dialogue with Black feminist geography scholarship. I document the intense and ongoing process of Black/Native erasure and anti-Blackness/Nativeness in Mexico. I claim that if planning practitioners understood the way that white praise and the idea of mestizo travel with Mexican communities in the U.S. along with the afterlife of colonialism, slavery, and genocide, they could link narratives of Black and Native Mexican epistemologies. Planners would be able to more effectively plan with these communities to eliminate exploitative policies and practices and bring planning theory, pedagogy, and practice closer to their decolonial, feminist, and anti-racist aspirations.

My research uses an ethnographic approach to investigate social life in one racially diverse suburb of Cleveland, Ohio: Shaker Heights. Specifically, I investigate how Black Americans who occupy this space—as residents, employees, and visitors—think about, describe, and participate in social life in a diverse suburb. I conclude that, although Shaker is statistically integrated, the activity spaces and social lives of Black adults do not reflect this demographic reality. The findings from this study will help researchers better understand dynamics of community life and race relations in suburbia; a neighborhood type that is both seldom explored and growing in demographic importance.

I analyze how the discourse about schools has shaped the gentrification process in Berlin’s working-class and immigrant-dense Neukölln district. By considering the different perspectives and narratives of parents, the local government, property owners, and investors, I show that, even in a context in which education remains mainly public, schools play a crucial role in determining the housing and educational strategies of different stakeholders in the area. I argue for a more thorough engagement of European urban studies with the histories of racism and migration, in specific with the question of school segregation and territorially based ethno-racial stigma, to fully grasp the current gentrification of previously neglected neighborhoods across western European cities.

Using critical discourse analysis, we analyzed 251 local news articles from Lawrence and Lowell, Massachusetts. This comparative study highlights the racialization of space and the racializing power of space in two small city newspapers: the Eagle Tribune and the Lowell Sun. We demonstrate how (White) criminality is made sympathetic through White death, and how space is employed as a multi-valiant mechanism of colorblind racialization. We theorize the construction of a distorted and racialized “supply chain,” featuring narratives of “stock dealers” from “source cities” moving drugs into predominately White “receiver cities” populated by vulnerable “new users,” employing and producing space as a racialized frame. Ultimately, we map how familiar racialization and novel decriminalization is produced in/by local news media.

The purpose of this paper is two-fold: (1) to center the racial character of the urban process within a broader political economy of racial capitalism and (2) to position capitalism and racism as mutually dependent systems of exploitation. The paper begins by discussing the omission of race and racism within urbanization processes. Here, the work of David Harvey is critiqued in order to highlight not only the contradictions of capitalism, but also those of Marxist scholars in understanding urban development. The paper then discusses the forms of racial capitalism through modalities of dispossession and displacement, the agents engaged in this process, and the competing ideologies that structure the urban political economy, particularly in the U.S. The paper ends with suggestions for future research to consider the constitutive nature of capitalism and racism in producing urbanization processes.

Drawing upon critical race theory, the purpose of this research is to use narratives to highlight how race, structural racism, White privilege, and power continue to shape environmental injustices in the urban landscape. By sharing these stories, we illustrate how (a) environmental injustices stemming from structural and overt racism are often positioned as ordinary experiences, (b) the racialized state continues to foster environmental injustices in Latinx communities, and (c) how techniques of what we refer to as “greensplaining” are deployed by environmentalists and conservationists as further justification for White privilege, racialized marginalization, and processes of gentrification.

Furthermore, it explored whether engaging in critical service-learning coursework incorporating an anti-racist curriculum disrupted the mechanisms that perpetuate racist ideological habits and associations. The narrative analysis deconstructed 12 participants’ reflective essays using a critical race theoretical lens. The overall findings revealed that the participants experience urban communities through racist associations and ideologies promoting white supremacist thinking. The critical service-learning course did influence the perceptions of the participants. However, findings suggest that a single critical service-learning course is insufficient to prepare pre-service teachers with the anti-racist pedagogies necessary for disrupting the ideological habits they bring to the classroom. Therefore, this study concluded that teacher education programs should infuse anti-racist development as an ongoing and progressive aspect of their program.

There has been little scholarly studies about the memories of the original Chinese residents in Limehouse Chinatown. As a project of de-imperializing city, I situate this article in the contested field of postcolonial cities in relation to decolonizing imperial legacies with a focus on contesting a racialized ethnic minority space, i.e., Limehouse Chinatown. By reframing the racialized Limehouse Chinatown from a bounded Chinese space into a shared place beyond the Chinese community, I seek to re-inscribe the memories of Limehouse Chinatown into the narrative of the postcolonial intercultural city of Londonwith some original interview-based accounts from the Limehouse’s mixed race residents. In turn, the role of writing about ethnic minority spaces such as Chinatown is also examined.

Using scholarly work on time, space, and power as its foundation, this study develops the concept of residential time, or the perception and experience of a neighborhood’s demographic and cultural lifespan, and traces its deployment in narratives surrounding racially-integrated neighborhoods. I draw on both the academic literature concerning race and space as well as select news articles on neighborhoods in New Orleans, Louisiana, as examples of the discursive relegation of racially-mixed neighborhoods, demonstrating how public discourse characterizes them as unstable and fleeting. I argue that this temporal relegation ultimately serves white spatial politics, or the differential construction of residential time in a manner that propels the aims of racial capitalism. The implications of such a widespread characterization of residential time in mixed-race neighborhoods are similarly discussed.

This study examines the nature of housing inequalities and their determinants focusing on ethnolinguistic groups using a nationally representative household survey, where housing inequality is measured using two indicators: housing space usage (room per capita) and access to utilities (an index based on access to piped water, sewerage, cooking gas, and electricity). Results show that housing inequality by ethnicity is very high, and ethnic belonging, along with socioeconomic factors, significantly influences space consumption and access to utilities. Intersectionality between ethnicity, income, and education plays a crucial role in housing inequality. Balochi, Sindhi, and Siraiki communities have a lower potential for achieving adequate housing than other communities. To reduce housing inequalities, identified disadvantaged communities along with the economic poor should be targeted through housing policies and programmes.

The 1930s Home Owners’ Loan Corporation (HOLC) “residential security maps,” recently digitized, have become a popular visualization of Depression era mortgage lending risk patterns across American cities. Numerous housing policies have since been instituted, including the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), but mortgage lending bias persists. The degree to which detailed spatial patterns of bias have persisted or changed along with urban change is not well understood. We compare historic HOLC grades and contemporary levels of mortgage lending bias using spatially detailed HMDA data. We further examine the relationship between HOLC risk grades and contemporary racial and ethnic settlement patterns. Results suggest that historical mortgage lending risk categorizations and settlement patterns are associated with contemporary mortgage lending bias and racial and ethnic settlement patterns. Concerted and deliberate efforts will be needed to change these patterns.

This paper uses analysis of historic documents, including plans, newspaper articles and maps, as well as eviction, geographic foreclosure, and other quantitative data and observational data to make an argument for viewing the state of evictions in Richmond as a continuation of longstanding practices of dispossession and disempowerment in Black neighborhoods. We argue that eviction is one of a chain of dispossessions that is both economic and political. We also argue that framing eviction as an individual, rather than a collective, public problem facilitates ongoing marginalization and inaction. Finally, we cannot understand and address Virginia’s high eviction rates without examining the roots of the ongoing, racialized dispossession and lack of political power in these communities.

But questions remain as to what kinds of mixtures (White/Black, White/Hispanic, or White/Asian) gentrification facilitates and how stable they are over time. To address this limitation, this study utilizes Census and American Community Survey data for metropolitan areas from 1980 to 2010. We use a typology of racial/ethnic neighborhoods by composition to determine what kind of demographic integration, if any, results from gentrification and how stable it is over time. Using hybrid fixed effects logistic regression to control for modeled and unmodeled factors, we find gentrification is associated with the emergence of mixed-White-and-Black and mixed-White-and-Hispanic neighborhoods, but not mixed White-and-Asian/Pacific Islander neighborhoods. Using conventional logistic regression, we find gentrification that began in the 1980s is related to the long-term integration of Whites with Hispanics and Blacks.

However, the increased visibility such spaces bring also puts protestors at greater risk of a backlash from others who expect to be able to keep moving at their own pace. Starting in 2015, a series of protests in the U.S. began using large-scale transportation infrastructure in urban areas, especially Black Lives Matter activists. Shortly thereafter, in 2017, a series of bills were introduced in state legislatures across the U.S. to limit or criminalize this activity. This paper analyzes the arguments made by legislative sponsors and supporters of these bills, using the theoretical lenses of friction and the shoal to argue that in the highly mobile society of the U.S., fear of delay or disruption becomes even more powerful when combined with racialized fears of the city.

Two years on, these appeals have not translated into widespread policy change. We analyze the movement’s relationship to the U.S. state, focusing on state surveillance of the movement. To grasp this, we consider four distinct but intersecting historical processes: first, the long-standing repression of Black people by the U.S.; second, a political shift in the management of urban protest after September 11, 2001; third, the rapid enhancement of technological means for surveillance; and fourth, the emergence of an evolved political form of authoritarianism since ca. 2009. The political economic conjuncture of these processes is not conducive to the movement for Black lives. This movement, and the campaign to reduce state surveillance, are therefore interdependent struggles for collective liberation.

This article analyzes the construction of immigrant groups and the social oppression experienced by immigrant groups in Seoul. Specifically, this article focuses on multilayered social pressure experienced by low-income foreign-born workers and marriage migrants, who account for 36% and 7.9%, respectively, of the city’s foreign-born population. This article shows that diversity policies in Seoul ultimately reaffirm, rather than challenge, national definitions of the different ethnic groups by strengthening the categories and associated social oppressions of gender, ethnicity, and class. The study is based on a documentary analysis of policies on immigrants in Seoul and interviews with public officials and immigrants.

This identification is tied to the neighborhood’s racialization; the qualities that have been labeled as problems to be transformed through social mix make it a space of relative safety and security, in a context in which many residents experience attempted exclusions from German identity. Based on interviews with racialized long-time residents, contextualized within racialization in Germany, the racialized displaceability embedded in social mix policy, the contested meaning of Heimat, and the experiences of Wilhelmsburg residents with migrantization, I argue that this emphatic claim is a strength that is threatened by the current process of social mix gentrification.

We contribute to this literature by examining whether calls for service declined in the aftermath of the killing of Samuel DuBose by a University of Cincinnati Police Department officer in 2015. We employ an interrupted time series design, treating the DuBose killing as an exogenous shock that may have altered the trend in calls for service from 2014 to 2016. We gathered data on 911 calls and crime incidents from the Cincinnati Police Department, to which we appended block group-level demographic data from the American Community Survey. We find a substantial unconditional effect of DuBose’s killing on the level of calls for service in all neighborhoods, especially in majority Black neighborhoods. The size of these effects is reduced substantially after introducing controls; nevertheless, the effect of the DuBose killing is still significant in calls for service in all block groups and for majority Black block groups. We conclude by calling for increased research on the community-level impacts of police violence.

While it concentrates on findings about Diu, the arguments it develops are more wide-ranging and have a series of architectural, urbanistic, and anthropological implications. It addresses the construction of identity by exploring the multiplicities and slippages of colonial imagery, social histories, and spatial production in the management of populations and colonial cities. We argue that the Portuguese shared ideologies rooted in race, ethnicity and religion that provide a consistent, detectable structure for a specific interpretation of spatial-morphological arrangements in Diu (the city’s buildings, architecture, urban layout, and spatial structure) in the context of the European colonial city in South Asia. We analyze the discourse with which the Portuguese created knowledge through cartography, tracing how ideologies linked to race, ethnicity and religion were historically internalized, and how they worked in conjunction with social structures and practices to produce the colonial city of Diu.

In 2018, Welcoming America launched the “One Region Initiative” to cultivate a concept of a “welcoming region” to transcend municipal boundaries. The purpose of this paper is to examine One Region member municipalities’ implementation of the plans and recommendations set forth in 2018. We specifically examined Phase I of the pilot program, which took place between 2019 and 2021 amid the broader multiscalar context of changing geographies of immigrant settlement and immigration policy. We do so through participant observation as One Region steering committee members, and applied researchers who have been engaged in immigrant integration work in the Atlanta metro area and throughout the country for over a decade. Overall, we find unevenly completed recommendations across locales (often more tied to resources than actual immigrant population share) and core areas (often tied to business friendliness and government).

In the past 15 years, the city has begun shifting back toward a whiter residential base. As in other American cities, this trend is being driven by a move from the suburban fringe back to the center by relatively mobile, middle- and upper-middle class white residents. While literature has examined the mechanics and locational preferences of mobile white residents, the characteristics of white urban identity are often overlooked. This paper examines the case of Little Five Points, a retail and entertainment district sitting between affluent neighborhoods east of downtown Atlanta, Georgia, USA. We identify multiple and competing whitenesses articulated and operationalized around Little Five Points over time and show how these multiple whitenesses retain key shared attributes of racial privilege grounded in property and exclusion.

Yet, scholars disagree regarding the mechanisms driving this phenomenon. Exogenous capitalism theories emphasize socioeconomic factors while setter-colonial racial capitalism theories emphasize the racist policies and practices that incentivize unequal investment and maintenance. We empirically adjudicate between these mechanisms by merging restricted-access versions of the American Housing Survey, the Rental Housing Finance Survey, and the American Community Survey at a Census Restricted Data Center. Our findings demonstrate neighborhood White proportion is a key mechanism shaping the condition of rental units even when controlling for neighborhood socioeconomic status, property features, and renter demographics. We argue these results support settler-colonial racial capitalism theories and discuss the implications of these findings for future research and housing policy.

Drawing on the case of Newark, New Jersey, I interrogate the governability of this agenda. I ask: how does a municipal government elected to reinvest in public schools end up supporting the growth of privately managed charter schools? The answer requires understanding how a Blackled government of a multiracial city negotiates its position in a majority-white, suburban state. Newark’s governing regime has built a practical hegemony, rooted not in visionary idealism but the negotiation of racialized constraint. Its focus is on mitigating the dispossessions wrought by a school reform agenda it did not devise but argues that it has no alternative but to manage given central government coercion. This disposition, which I call “anticolonial realism,” points to how race and place matter in sustaining, revising, and, potentially, undoing neoliberal hegemonies.

Drawing on 12 semi-structured walking interviews in Rotterdam, our findings reveal that (un)ease is not only affected by the types of surrounding bodies and the amount of attention directed at these bodies, but also by spatial and temporal factors, such as day-night, quietness-liveliness, whiteness-racialization, immobility-mobility and familiarity-unfamiliarity. Furthermore, we mapped the men’s geography of (un)ease, showing how stigma is spatially situated in relation to different neighborhoods. In contrast to previous studies, respondents did not seem to only opt for conflict avoidant strategies as their main coping strategies utilized were ignoring, avoiding, reforming and contesting.

In this paper, we use Seiler’s ideas regarding the racialization of mobility and Henricks and Seamster’s theory of the racial tax state, in conjunction with Presser’s analysis of the unsaid, to explain high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) to high-occupancy toll (HOT) lane conversions in U.S. metropolitan areas. We argue that silence on race in the major push for HOV to HOT lane conversions by libertarian “think tanks” and U.S. Department of Transportation guidance is fundamental to instrumentalizing transportation policy for racist tax regimes.

Although a salient feature of the urban process, the urban here relates to processes of geographically expansive racialized urbanization versus one solely focused on Black marginality within cities. Second, I expand upon this distinction by underscoring how anti-Blackness extends beyond the urban core. Lastly, I offer a brief contrast between the thematic concepts of dispossession versus displacement used within our complementary frameworks. I end with a few remarks regarding the differences presented here as they relate to ongoing and future resistance efforts, arguing that anti-Blackness has always been confronted with Black people making space and place.

In the United Kingdom, people who claim Black, Asian and UK minority ethnic (UKBAME) backgrounds are less likely to have a garden, or live near quality greenspace, and are often under-represented as park users, compared with White British people. Placemakers in the UK predominantly claim White British ethnicity. We find cultural biases support unfair advantage for White British people in provision of, and access to healthy nature in London. We propose insufficient attention is given to the cultural content of nature and find that inequality is sustained by White privilege in design or management, even in “best practice” exemplars. We propose action to increase equity in access to healthy nature in cities, responding to variation we find in Viability, Interest and perceived Healthfulness of greenspaces in London for people along lines of ethnicity, race and religion.

Theorizing the mutual construction of whiteness and gentrification in the urban U.S. Abstract: Urban gentrification is often assumed to be a racialized process. Scholarly work on gentrification, however, has generally left race underexplored, and has specifically not fully engaged with critical theories of whiteness, despite the frequent use of this categorization in a descriptive manner. In this review piece, I clarify this relationship by theorizing the mutual construction of whiteness and gentrification in contemporary U.S. cities. Whiteness, as a powerful structural and ideological force, shapes how gentrification processes play out via both appropriative practices of racialized cultural consumption and economic processes related to racial capitalism and racialized organizations. In turn, gentrification shapes whiteness by spurring salient discourse of racial difference and further necessitating the justification of racial economic inequality. When we imply that gentrification is “white,” what we mean is that it solidifies white structural dominance and reifies whiteness itself as a privileged racial categorization.
