Suburban Refugees - Jennifer Huynh - Bog

Bag om Suburban Refugees

As more and more Americans living in the suburbs face the risk of eviction and displacement, Suburban Refugees shatters the myth of suburbia as a homogenous and harmonious haven. Focusing on Southern California's Little Saigon, a global suburb and the capital of "Vietnamese America," Jennifer Huynh takes us into her thriving community to show how Vietnamese refugees and their children are enacting placemaking against forces of displacement such as financialized capital, exclusionary zoning, and the criminalization of migrants. This book raises crucial questions about challenging suburban inequality and complicates our understanding of refugee resettlement-and, more broadly, the American dream.
