Social Justice in Diverse Suburbs: History, Politics, and Prospects

Social Justice in Diverse Suburbs is a pioneering and multidisciplinary volume that reassesses commonplace understandings of suburban activism. Editor Christopher Niedt and his contributors shed light on organizing and conflict in the suburbs, with historical and contemporary case studies. Chapters address topical issues ranging from how suburbanites actively fought school segregation to their struggles against industrial pollution and displacement along the suburban-rural fringe.
