On the settler city: David Hugill, Settler Colonial City: Racism and Inequity in Postwar Minneapolis, University of Minnesota Press, 2021

06Oct21

Description: Revealing the enduring link between settler colonization and the making of modern Minneapolis. Examining several distinct Minneapolis sites, Settler Colonial City tracks how settler-colonial relations were articulated alongside substantial growth in the Twin Cities Indigenous community during the second half of the twentieth century—creating new geographies of racialized advantage. It reveals how non-Indigenous people in Minneapolis produced and enforced a racialized economy of power that directly contradicts the city’s “progressive” reputation.
