AboutMe edit

I'm an associate professor of history and urban studies at LaGuardia Community College, one of the City University of New York (CUNY) schools in Queens. I live in Harlem. Write about race and politics in Detroit in the 1920s and 1930s. I'm especially interested in the seemingly counter-intuitive relationship between the growth of liberalism over this period, and the sustenance of racial discrimination and stratification within Northern cities. That's my public face.
