If I Had My Way I’d Tear The Building Down: Political Economy, Regional History, and Landscape Transformations in Greater New Orleans
The Anti-Capitalist Chronicles
Counterinsurgency Reexamined: Racism, Capitalism, and US Military Doctrine
The US has been engaged in coercive projects of counterinsurgency since the Indian Wars in the 19 th century. Racist constructions of the enemy have been central to this process. Counterinsurgency has called forth new waves of contestation at every juncture, which has in turn shaped the very texture of military doctrine. This article draws on archival research, historical geography, and Marxist theory to trace the dialectics of counterinsurgency …
Development Drowned and Reborn: The Blues and Bourbon Restorations in Post-Katrina New Orleans
"Development Drowned and Reborn is a 'Blues geography' of New Orleans, one that compels readers to return to the history of the Black freedom struggle there to reckon with its unfinished business. Reading contemporary policies of abandonment against the grain, Clyde Woods explores how Hurricane Katrina brought long-standing structures of domination into view. In so doing, Woods delineates the roots of neoliberalism in the region and a history of …
Incarcerating the Crisis: Freedom Struggles and the Rise of the Neoliberal State
Incarcerating the Crisis: Freedom Struggles and the Rise of the Neoliberal State
"The United States currently has the highest incarceration rate of any country: one in thirty-five adults are in jail, prison, immigrant detention, or on parole or probation. Over the last four decades, structural unemployment, concentrated urban poverty, and mass homelessness have also become permanent features of the political economy. These developments are without historical precedent, but not without historical explanation. In this searing c…
Challenging the Terms of Order: Representations of the Detroit Rebellions, 1967–1968
While many analysts have commented on the representation of 1968 campus events and antiwar demonstrations, less attention has been paid to the global significance of the dramatic struggles in industrial Detroit during the period. The meanings of events in the city were intensely fought over. As Stuart Hall, Chas Critcher, Tony Jefferson, John Clarke, and Brian Roberts observed, the events of 1968 were “an act of collective will, the breaks and ru…
Black Radicalism, Marxism, and Collective Memory: An Interview with Robin D. G. Kelley
Black Radicalism, Marxism, and Collective Memory: An Interview with Robin D. G. Kelley Jordan T. Camp (bio) This interview was occasioned by the twentieth anniversary of Robin D. G. Kelley’s Hammer and Hoe: Alabama Communists during the Great Depression (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 1990), an anniversary that fell amid the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. Conducted in Los Angeles during 2011, it has been since…
Blues Geographies and the Security Turn: Interpreting the Housing Crisis in Los Angeles
This article examines the political and cultural struggles over housing and human rights in Los Angeles. It analyzes the racial and spatial dynamics of the housing crisis and subsequent global economic crash, and underscores the significance of the politics of scale. It argues that struggles for the human right to housing in Skid Row, in Los Angeles, represent a continuity of campaigns to contest racial capitalism's organization of space. As gras…
Listening to Revolt: The selected writings of George Rawick
We Know This Place: Neoliberal Racial Regimes and the Katrina Circumstance
In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Black New Orleans was represented as a symbol of “disorder” as major network news focused attention on one of the poorest cities in the poorest region in the country—a city where Blacks accounted for 67% of the city before the storm. While mass mediated discourses of security, law and order helped legitimate repressive state responses to the event, New Orleans poet, teacher, singer, and Black grassroots activist …
