William A. White III, "Segregation Made Them Neighbors: An Archaeology of Racialization in Boise, Idaho "
English | ISBN: 1496217136 | 2023 | 234 pages | PDF | 9 MB
Segregation Made Them Neighbors investigates the relationship between whiteness and nonwhiteness through the lenses of landscapes and material culture. William A. White III uses data collected from a public archaeology and digital humanities project conducted in the River Street neighborhood in Boise, Idaho, to investigate the mechanisms used to divide local populations into racial categories. The River Street Neighborhood was a multiracial, multiethnic enclave in Boise that was inhabited by African American, European American, and Basque residents. Building on theoretical concepts from whiteness studies and critical race theory, this volume also explores the ways Boise's residents crafted segregated landscapes between the 1890s and 1960s to establish white and nonwhite geographies.
