Global Queens: An Urban Mosaic
ISBN: 9781531504519 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Winner, The David R. Coffin Publication Grant A vibrant exploration of the everyday life of one of the most diverse places in the world: Queens, New York. Remade by decades of immigration, Queens, New York, has emerged as an emblematic space of social mixing and encounters across multiple lines of difference.

A new edition of a classic work revealing the little-known history of African Americans in New York City before Emancipation.

But the cities of the North were built by—and became the home of—tens of thousands of enslaved African Americans, many of whom would continue to live there as free people after Emancipation. In the Shadow of Slavery reveals the history of African Americans in the nation’s largest metropolis, New York City. Leslie M. Harris...
