I center the culturally symbolic site of Detroit bus stops as point of ethnographic departure. With my choreography as strategy approach to ethnography, I hang out at the site of the bus stop itself, finding perceptions of city life are shaped by people's subjective-geographic understandings, and reflect the paradox of place. In other words, people's perceptions exist both within and beyond built environment and prefigured assumptions of group membership. However, the philosophical, the choreographic, and the paradox do not substitute for historical-materialist, political economic analysis. Rather, I suggest that people's subjectivities and philosophical stances be considered alongside the political economic in an anthropology of cities. Demonstrative of such an approach, I offer several ethnographic sketches and some of the nuances that emerge as I wander bus stops in Detroit.

An ethnography completed over several years in an east side Detroit neighborhood called McDougall Hunt, the project exists in a variety of registers, working across contemporary art, performance, urban anthropology, critical geography, visual studies, film and new media, African American studies, and urban studies. The visual work of Liquor Store Theatre includes a four-volume, twenty-plus video episode meditation on city life included in the Whitney Museum of American Art Biennial 2017. The works were produced as I staged and video-documented dance performances and conversations on city life in the streets and sidewalks surrounding liquor stores in the neighborhood where I also lived. In addition to the publicly known moving and still image works associated with the project, Liquor Store Theatre was a classical neighborhood ethnography. From the liquor store performances and conversations as points of departure, I orbited with my willing neighbors into their lives up and down our blocks. I ended up in their breakfast nooks, at their cocktail parties, in their backyards and public gardens, together on the sidewalks of Heidelberg Project, and at neighborhood meetings, hanging out and tracing daily living in the zone. Despite the racist/capitalist economic system and regionalist/post-industrial economic decline evident in Detroit broadly and in the zone, people found ways of making the city move. Over my fieldwork, I found that residents used the forces of art, labor, and movement to shape and interpret city life.  Understanding McDougall Hunt required fresh thinking due to its seemingly bizarre contradictions—a gorgeous geography, near the river, with complex and intelligent long-time residents, artists galore, eight liquor stores in 0.39 of a square mile, and a median income of $13,000 USD at 2010 Census. I was searching for a new way of thinking about old questions of power and struggle for the city. In this search, I located an analytic I called the paradox of place. With paradox of place, I prioritized both the affect and desire of the day-to-day, and the abstract, philosophical possibilities of space, along with attention to the historical materialist, empirical realities that shaped political economy of space and place. From the quiet art and writing of neighbors, to alternative modes of labor keeping the block going, to movement of capital, people, water, and development, the project that started with a dancerly prompt landed squarely in the everyday; touching the affect and desire of the mundane, the paradox of place, and documenting visually and ethnographically the rich complexities in the present moment.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="36559162"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="36559162"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 36559162;

How about dance ethnography as method? The Liquor Store Theatre project (LST) is a series of choreographed dance performances and ethnographic conversations on the sidewalks and spaces in and around liquor stores on Detroit's east side. LST started in a moment where you feel tears begin to form: a solitarily emotional place of anguish, release, and sometimes joy. A moment of holding on and of letting go, where something indescribable but so incredibly recognizable is speeding to the surface, rushing at you full throttle, and all you can do is let go and let it happen, whatever it may be. It lands on the shale-and dust-coated sidewalks of the city, dancing to bizarre rhythms as it seeks to connect with people. LST sets forth choreography/ethnography as research method. It uses staged dance performances in the spaces of my neighborhood as the point where ethnographic conversations begin. In this way, creativity and improvisation are at the center of ethnographic encounters. Working in an east side neighborhood in Detroit, LST investigates the complexities of blackness in a small, unique zone of an American city in transition.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e086bd811a143f261b87a33e816c051b" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":46538933,"asset_id":26220153,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/46538933/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="26220153"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="26220153"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 26220153;

Liquor Store Theater negotiates the right to the city while inserting discussions of race, privilege, and access into Detroit's current trends of real estate speculation, modes of gentrification, and projects of place-making within its post-bankruptcy context. Her choreo-ethnographic project deflects, refracts, and resists the ethnographic gaze by blurring the roles of "participant," "researcher," and "performer," unconventionally engages her own background in dance and performance to create a space where the stories of the city's transformation might be gathered and given a greater voice and increased visibility. In her own and adjacent neighborhoods on Detroit's eastside, the liquor store remains one of the primary hubs for meeting and greeting, for street-side and parking lot centered encounters. The backdrop of the liquor store creates a theatrical frame for Stovall's sidewalk ballet, an often hand-painted façade whose focal point resides in the stories of its neighbors and whose horizon of possibility involves a certain kind of dancerly sharing that can only happen with both feet that plant, pivot, and pause upon its cracked, concrete yet fertile ground. In our conversation, which will additionally lead to an in-depth piece on her work for the upcoming issue of Detroit Research, Stovall discusses her primary artistic and theoretical interlocutors, the topographical politics of "spatial taint," the artist as activist, choreographies of ethnography, and a day in the life of Liquor Store Theater.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="eeab672f11530adb4157199e29fe9d26" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":41067398,"asset_id":12522774,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41067398/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="12522774"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="12522774"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 12522774;

Through labor, art, cultural technology , and social life, African American aesthetics have breathed life into modern and contemporary American culture. The stress and fatigue of machines, labor, capitalism, and racism, imposed on bodies during the industrial revolution and in the postindustrial era have provided raw material for black artistic expressions during the mid–to-late twentieth century. Furthermore, this artistic expression, fueled by the angst of changing times generally and tensions facing African Americans in particular, has served as American catharsis through the creation of innovative cultural expressions. This article analyzes the dialectical relationships of industrialization, racism, and modern aesthetics, through the lens of the innovative African American social dance form, the Lindy Hop; and the virtuosic pop performances of Michael Jackson. The important contributions of theLindy Hop as a dance style and Michael Jackson as a performer have had a profound impact on the aesthetics of modernity in American social and popular concert dance. To better understand the relationship between industrialization and the African American shaping of aesthetics of modernity, this article analyzes black experiences and embodiment of industrial labor and the ways that African Americans drew from their particular experiences of industrial labor toward the creation of critical cultural technology.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="c60a2414f63dfdc666bed60a37f3485e" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":38162081,"asset_id":13929645,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38162081/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="13929645"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="13929645"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 13929645;

In spite of this narrative, Detroit today remains a city of intense poverty and inequality. Between 2009 and 2013, an estimated 39 percent of Detroit residents were living below the Federal Poverty Line. This figure renders Detroit as statistically the poorest city in the country. In addition to a mythical narrative of rapid-fire investment, popular media representations of Detroit are peppered with racialized references to white business investment. These references position whiteness as " saving " Detroit and center whiteness in the urban process. This racialized narrative is false and divisive in a city that is upwards of 83 percent African American. In this paper, we map the disparity between the racial politics of Detroit and the anti-black public discourse narrative currently surrounding the city. We demonstrate that the public discourse valorization of a profit-driven urban process results in an anti-black prioritization of whiteness in Detroit's post-bankruptcy redevelopment process. This narrative, if unchecked, will have serious consequences in the city's present and future. As such, we propose a re-centering of the blackness of the city and the racial politics of generations that have shaped current conditions , toward a more equitable recovery process.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="9e505b0f46b0332840aedcbab0a24279" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":49971158,"asset_id":29530155,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49971158/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="29530155"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="29530155"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 29530155;

In spite of this narrative, Detroit today remains a city of intense poverty and inequality. Between 2009 and 2013, an estimated 39 percent of Detroit residents were living below the Federal Poverty Line. This figure renders Detroit as statistically the poorest city in the country. In addition to a mythical narrative of rapid-fire investment, popular media representations of Detroit are peppered with racialized references to white business investment. These references position whiteness as " saving " Detroit and center whiteness in the urban process. This racialized narrative is false and divisive in a city that is upwards of 83 percent African American. In this paper, we map the disparity between the racial politics of Detroit and the anti-black public discourse narrative currently surrounding the city. We demonstrate that the public discourse valorization of a profit-driven urban process results in an anti-black prioritization of whiteness in Detroit's post-bankruptcy redevelopment process. This narrative, if unchecked, will have serious consequences in the city's present and future. As such, we propose a re-centering of the blackness of the city and the racial politics of generations that have shaped current conditions , toward a more equitable recovery process.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="f6d903ca5ae08e7d9ee90fc023ac7117" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":49969672,"asset_id":29529322,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49969672/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="29529322"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="29529322"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 29529322;

In this book of the same name, Stovall uses the project as a point of departure for understanding everyday life in Detroit and the possibilities for ethnographic research, art, and knowledge creation. Her conversations with her neighbors—which touch on everything from economics, aesthetics, and sex to the political and economic racism that undergirds Detroit's history—bring to light rarely acknowledged experiences of longtime Detroiters. In these exchanges, Stovall enacts an innovative form of ethnographic engagement that offers new modes of integrating the social sciences with the arts in ways that exceed what either approach can achieve on its own.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/liquor-store-theatre" rel="nofollow">https://www.dukeupress.edu/liquor-store-theatre</a></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="214f88eba147135347ce56632a3ed376" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":63278031,"asset_id":43013452,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/63278031/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="43013452"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="43013452"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 43013452;

I center the culturally symbolic site of Detroit bus stops as point of ethnographic departure. With my choreography as strategy approach to ethnography, I hang out at the site of the bus stop itself, finding perceptions of city life are shaped by people's subjective-geographic understandings, and reflect the paradox of place. In other words, people's perceptions exist both within and beyond built environment and prefigured assumptions of group membership. However, the philosophical, the choreographic, and the paradox do not substitute for historical-materialist, political economic analysis. Rather, I suggest that people's subjectivities and philosophical stances be considered alongside the political economic in an anthropology of cities. Demonstrative of such an approach, I offer several ethnographic sketches and some of the nuances that emerge as I wander bus stops in Detroit. Ultimately, I argue for an approach to urban anthropological research that prioritizes people's complex subjectivities alongside onto-historical context.

An ethnography completed over several years in an east side Detroit neighborhood called McDougall Hunt, the project exists in a variety of registers, working across contemporary art, performance, urban anthropology, critical geography, visual studies, film and new media, African American studies, and urban studies. The visual work of Liquor Store Theatre includes a four-volume, twenty-plus video episode meditation on city life included in the Whitney Museum of American Art Biennial 2017. The works were produced as I staged and video-documented dance performances and conversations on city life in the streets and sidewalks surrounding liquor stores in the neighborhood where I also lived. In addition to the publicly known moving and still image works associated with the project, Liquor Store Theatre was a classical neighborhood ethnography. From the liquor store performances and conversations as points of departure, I orbited with my willing neighbors into their lives up and down our blocks. I ended up in their breakfast nooks, at their cocktail parties, in their backyards and public gardens, together on the sidewalks of Heidelberg Project, and at neighborhood meetings, hanging out and tracing daily living in the zone. Despite the racist/capitalist economic system and regionalist/post-industrial economic decline evident in Detroit broadly and in the zone, people found ways of making the city move. Over my fieldwork, I found that residents used the forces of art, labor, and movement to shape and interpret city life.  Understanding McDougall Hunt required fresh thinking due to its seemingly bizarre contradictions—a gorgeous geography, near the river, with complex and intelligent long-time residents, artists galore, eight liquor stores in 0.39 of a square mile, and a median income of $13,000 USD at 2010 Census. I was searching for a new way of thinking about old questions of power and struggle for the city. In this search, I located an analytic I called the paradox of place. With paradox of place, I prioritized both the affect and desire of the day-to-day, and the abstract, philosophical possibilities of space, along with attention to the historical materialist, empirical realities that shaped political economy of space and place. From the quiet art and writing of neighbors, to alternative modes of labor keeping the block going, to movement of capital, people, water, and development, the project that started with a dancerly prompt landed squarely in the everyday; touching the affect and desire of the mundane, the paradox of place, and documenting visually and ethnographically the rich complexities in the present moment.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="36559162"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="36559162"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 36559162;

A moment of holding on and of letting go, where something indescribable but so incredibly recognizable is speeding to the surface, rushing at you full throttle, and all you can do is let go and let it happen, whatever it may be. It lands on the shale-and dust-coated sidewalks of the city, dancing to bizarre rhythms as it seeks to connect with people. LST sets forth choreography/ethnography as research method. It uses staged dance performances in the spaces of my neighborhood as the point where ethnographic conversations begin. In this way, creativity and improvisation are at the center of ethnographic encounters. Working in an east side neighborhood in Detroit, LST investigates the complexities of blackness in a small, unique zone of an American city in transition.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e086bd811a143f261b87a33e816c051b" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":46538933,"asset_id":26220153,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/46538933/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="26220153"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="26220153"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 26220153;

Liquor Store Theater negotiates the right to the city while inserting discussions of race, privilege, and access into Detroit's current trends of real estate speculation, modes of gentrification, and projects of place-making within its post-bankruptcy context. Her choreo-ethnographic project deflects, refracts, and resists the ethnographic gaze by blurring the roles of "participant," "researcher," and "performer," unconventionally engages her own background in dance and performance to create a space where the stories of the city's transformation might be gathered and given a greater voice and increased visibility. In her own and adjacent neighborhoods on Detroit's eastside, the liquor store remains one of the primary hubs for meeting and greeting, for street-side and parking lot centered encounters. The backdrop of the liquor store creates a theatrical frame for Stovall's sidewalk ballet, an often hand-painted façade whose focal point resides in the stories of its neighbors and whose horizon of possibility involves a certain kind of dancerly sharing that can only happen with both feet that plant, pivot, and pause upon its cracked, concrete yet fertile ground. In our conversation, which will additionally lead to an in-depth piece on her work for the upcoming issue of Detroit Research, Stovall discusses her primary artistic and theoretical interlocutors, the topographical politics of "spatial taint," the artist as activist, choreographies of ethnography, and a day in the life of Liquor Store Theater.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="eeab672f11530adb4157199e29fe9d26" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":41067398,"asset_id":12522774,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41067398/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="12522774"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="12522774"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 12522774;

Through labor, art, cultural technology , and social life, African American aesthetics have breathed life into modern and contemporary American culture. The stress and fatigue of machines, labor, capitalism, and racism, imposed on bodies during the industrial revolution and in the postindustrial era have provided raw material for black artistic expressions during the mid–to-late twentieth century. Furthermore, this artistic expression, fueled by the angst of changing times generally and tensions facing African Americans in particular, has served as American catharsis through the creation of innovative cultural expressions. This article analyzes the dialectical relationships of industrialization, racism, and modern aesthetics, through the lens of the innovative African American social dance form, the Lindy Hop; and the virtuosic pop performances of Michael Jackson. The important contributions of theLindy Hop as a dance style and Michael Jackson as a performer have had a profound impact on the aesthetics of modernity in American social and popular concert dance. To better understand the relationship between industrialization and the African American shaping of aesthetics of modernity, this article analyzes black experiences and embodiment of industrial labor and the ways that African Americans drew from their particular experiences of industrial labor toward the creation of critical cultural technology.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="c60a2414f63dfdc666bed60a37f3485e" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":38162081,"asset_id":13929645,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38162081/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="13929645"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="13929645"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 13929645;

In spite of this narrative, Detroit today remains a city of intense poverty and inequality. Between 2009 and 2013, an estimated 39 percent of Detroit residents were living below the Federal Poverty Line. This figure renders Detroit as statistically the poorest city in the country. In addition to a mythical narrative of rapid-fire investment, popular media representations of Detroit are peppered with racialized references to white business investment. These references position whiteness as " saving " Detroit and center whiteness in the urban process. This racialized narrative is false and divisive in a city that is upwards of 83 percent African American. In this paper, we map the disparity between the racial politics of Detroit and the anti-black public discourse narrative currently surrounding the city. We demonstrate that the public discourse valorization of a profit-driven urban process results in an anti-black prioritization of whiteness in Detroit's post-bankruptcy redevelopment process.

In spite of this narrative, Detroit today remains a city of intense poverty and inequality. Between 2009 and 2013, an estimated 39 percent of Detroit residents were living below the Federal Poverty Line. This figure renders Detroit as statistically the poorest city in the country. In addition to a mythical narrative of rapid-fire investment, popular media representations of Detroit are peppered with racialized references to white business investment. These references position whiteness as " saving " Detroit and center whiteness in the urban process. This racialized narrative is false and divisive in a city that is upwards of 83 percent African American. In this paper, we map the disparity between the racial politics of Detroit and the anti-black public discourse narrative currently surrounding the city. We demonstrate that the public discourse valorization of a profit-driven urban process results in an anti-black prioritization of whiteness in Detroit's post-bankruptcy redevelopment process. This narrative, if unchecked, will have serious consequences in the city's present and future. As such, we propose a re-centering of the blackness of the city and the racial politics of generations that have shaped current conditions , toward a more equitable recovery process.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="f6d903ca5ae08e7d9ee90fc023ac7117" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":49969672,"asset_id":29529322,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49969672/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="29529322"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="29529322"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 29529322;

In this book of the same name, Stovall uses the project as a point of departure for understanding everyday life in Detroit and the possibilities for ethnographic research, art, and knowledge creation. Her conversations with her neighbors—which touch on everything from economics, aesthetics, and sex to the political and economic racism that undergirds Detroit's history—bring to light rarely acknowledged experiences of longtime Detroiters. In these exchanges, Stovall enacts an innovative form of ethnographic engagement that offers new modes of integrating the social sciences with the arts in ways that exceed what either approach can achieve on its own.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/liquor-store-theatre" rel="nofollow">https://www.dukeupress.edu/liquor-store-theatre</a></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="214f88eba147135347ce56632a3ed376" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":63278031,"asset_id":43013452,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/63278031/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="43013452"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="43013452"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 43013452;
