“In order to build this network of freeways, some 21,011 people were displaced in East Los Angeles, probably the largest per capita displacement in California history.” #EastLA #urbanplanning @BoomCalifornia: boomcalifornia.org/2023/04/1…
"However common suburbanization became, the sense of loss associated with being forced out by freeway development speaks to the deep communal ties to the neighborhoods forged by generations of multiracial and multiethnic place making." @ryanreft Read: boomcalifornia.org/2023/04/1…
“When I read Angel Dominguez’s Desgraciado I am invited into a reflection of my own processes of making sense of hemispheric subjectivization, both as a member of a diaspora community as well as someone who grew up on the Tijuana River Valley” boomcalifornia.org/2022/02/2…

Honored to have had this excerpt in @BoomCalifornia. Thank you for your continued support.
"Here, the space of cruising sprawls, opens up, invades, and ruptures the larger environs. It interrupts the space contained by artificial impediments." Read @alex_esp's beautiful excerpt "Tracing L.A.’s Cruising Culture" boomcalifornia.org/2019/07/1…
It was a profound honor to speak with @charmillerfour about his new book "Natural Consequences", environmental history, justice, and analysis, California's history of extraction and present issues, indigenous knowledge, storytelling, and much more. Read: boomcalifornia.org/2023/04/1…
