spreads out like a butterfly's wings on both sides of the coveted strip
of real estate running down the center of the city―Lawrence T. Brown
reveals that ongoing historical trauma caused by a combination of
policies, practices, systems, and budgets is at the root of uprisings
and crises in hypersegregated cities around the country.
