520 |a What can local histories of interracial conflict and collaboration teach us about the potential for urban equity and social justice in the future? Courtney Elizabeth Knapp chronicles the politics of gentrification and culture-based development in Chattanooga, Tennessee by tracing the roots of racism, spatial segregation and mainstream 'cosmopolitanism' back to the earliest encounters between the Cherokee, African Americans and white settlers. By weaving together archival, ethnographic and participatory action research techniques, she reveals the political complexities of a city characterized by centuries of ordinary resistance to racial segregation and uneven geographic development.
