Book excerpt: The Beat! was the first book to explore the musical, social, and cultural phenomenon of go-go music.

Its super-charged drumming and vocal combinations of hip-hop, funk, and soul evolved and still thrive on the streets of Washington, D.C., and in neighboring Prince George's County, making it.

Book Synopsis The Urban Racial State by : Noel A. Cazenave

Download or read book The Urban Racial State written by Noel A. Cazenave and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2011-04-16 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Urban Racial State introduces a new multi-disciplinary analytical approach to urban racial politics that provides a bridging concept for urban theory, racism theory, and state theory. This perspective, dubbed by Noel A. Cazenave as the Urban Racial State, both names and explains the workings of the political structure whose chief function for cities and other urban governments is the regulation of race relations within their geopolitical boundaries. In The Urban Racial State, Cazenave incorporates extensive archival and oral history case study data to support the placement of racism analysis as the focal point of the formulation of urban theory and the study of urban politics. Cazenave's approach offers a set of analytical tools that is sophisticated enough to address topics like the persistence of the urban racial state under the rule of African Americans and other politicians of color.
