Magical Urbanism: Latinos Reinvent the US City by Mike Davis

3.0

The title and description of this book are misleading. It does not--save for rare occasions--highlight Hispanic/Latinx agency and mobilization. The bulk of the book focuses on systemic (economic, political, racial) barriers to equality. Magical Urbanism lacks the flair of City of Quartz and the Depth of Set the Night on Fire
