Description

White identity in the United States is place bound, asserts George Lipsitz in How Racism Takes Place. An influential scholar in American and racial studies, Lipsitz contends that racism persists because a network of practices skew opportunities and life chances along racial lines. That is, these practices assign people of different races to different spaces and therefore allow grossly unequal access to education, employment, transportation, and shelter. Revealing how seemingly race-neutral urban sites contain hidden racial assumptions and imperatives, Lipsitz examines the ways in which urban space and social experience are racialized and emphasizes that aggrieved communities do not passively acquiesce to racism. He recognizes the people and communities that have re-imagined segregated spaces in expressive culture as places for congregation. How Racism Takes Place not only exposes the degree to which this White spatial imagining structures our society but also celebrates the Black artists and activists who struggle to create a just and decent society.

Terrible reader

The reader has a strange cadence and lack of enunciation at times that obscures meaning. Failure to stress or emphasize certain phrases and long-winded stretches followed by unpredictable, unnecessarily long halting pauses made me rewind over and over, and wonder if it was AI and not a real person reading. For some parts, I listened to the audiobook while simultaneously reading the text and noticed several disparities: "necessary" in one sentence of the text was read as "unnecessary" and in another, "potential" was read as "political." I'm sure there are much more instances that I didn't notice but all of these in combination, on top of the super monotonous voice, made for a somewhat difficult, confusing listen. It also doesnt help that the reader sounds bored and unconvinced by the content.
