Jacobs, Amy August, and Wendy Thompson Taiwo. 520 $a On May 25, 2020, George Floyd, an unarmed Black man, was killed by Minneapolis police officers, sparking months of unrest at home and around the world. As millions took to the streets to express their outrage and speak out against systemic racism, injustice, and institutionalized violence, the city of Minneapolis and its residents were deeply shaken. For many, George Floyd's murder and the ensuing uprisings shattered the city's reputation for progressive ideals and a high quality of life. For many others, the incident simply caught on camera a representation of the harsh realities and paradoxes that they have been living with for generations. In the words of Jasmine Mitchell, "the 'Minnesota nice" comforts and illusionary progressiveness resides upon the ignoring of White racial terrorism and fears of Blackness, brown immigrants, and resistance to White supremacy. Sparked brings together the perspectives of social scientists, professors, and other academics who work or have worked in Minnesota. The essays present reflections on racial dynamics in the Twin Cities and the intersection of the wonderful and wretched sides of that existence, revealing deep complexities, ingrained inequities, and diverse personal experiences." -- Adapted from publisher's description. 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a Essays. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919922 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft 600 10 $a Floyd, George, $d 1973-2020. 650 0 $a Racism $z Minneapolis $z Minneapolis $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Racism $z Saint Paul $z Saint Paul $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Racism $z United States $y 21st century. 651 0 $a Minneapolis (Minn.) $x Race relations $y 21st century. 651 0 $a Saint Paul (Minn.) $x Race relations $y 21st century. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations $y 21st century. 700 1 $a Jacobs, Walter R., $e editor. 700 1 $a Taiwo, Wendy Thompson, $e contributor. $e contributor. 700 1 $a August, Amy, $e editor. 700 1 $a Aguilar, Rodolfo, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Beane, Kate, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Brewer, Rose M., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Castellanos, MariÌa Bianet, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Choy, Catherine Ceniza, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Coleman, Taiyon J. , $e contributor. 700 1 $a Fajardo, Kale Bantigue, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Gibney, Shannon, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Hirsi, Ibrahim, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Jacobs, Walter R., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Lawrence, David Todd, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Lewis, Brittany, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Logan, Enid, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Lozenski, Brian D., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Mayes, Keith A., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Mitchell, Jasmine, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Myers Jr., Samuel L., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Obando, Mario Alberto, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Pha, Kong Pheng, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Phillips, Katrina, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Powell, Amber Joy, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Raimist, Rachel, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Rajasekar, Neeraj, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Sarmiento, Thomas X., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Shannon, Jerry, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Shannon, Sarah, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Sharkey, Erin, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Singleton, Jermaine, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Sole, Jason Marque, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Spears-Rico, Gabriela, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Wheelock, Darren, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Williams, Marcia, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Williams, Yohuru, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Williamson, Terrion L., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Wright, Mi'Chael N. , $e contributor. 941 $a 5 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240717031102.0 952 $l JSPB572 $d 20240323012749.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117023542.0 952 $l YSPD232 $d 20221102014748.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20211201010511.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5FC7E518F4E911EBA186761358ECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
