Sutton, Kemp, and their contributors demonstrate the importance of place as both a site of oppression and transformation, offering theoretically-grounded placemaking strategies that agents of change in a variety of disciplines can use in working with both youth and adults. Their essays lay out a theoretical terrain and case studies put theory into practice. This exciting new work documents the persistent intersection of race, place, and power; illustrates the placemaking strategies that enable grassroots resistance; and explores the novel professional roles that new technologies make possible. It concludes with a placemaking model for resisting and transforming the relentless march of global capitalism.
