Description
This book examines the conflict surrounding the latest redevelopment frontier in Chicago: the city�s South Side blues clubs and blocks. Like Chicago, cities such as Cleveland, St. Louis, Boston, Washington D.C., Indianapolis, Milwaukee, and Philadelphia are experiencing a new redevelopment machine: one of tyrannizing and fear. Its actors are adroit at working via the creation of fear to �terror-redevelop� in these historically neglected neighborhoods. The book also discusses the powerful race and class-based politics in Chicago�s blues clubs that resist such change. A �leisure as resistance� framework represents the latest innovative form of opposition to the transformation of these historic sites.Typham this is the title: Chicago�s Redevelopment Machine and Blues Clubs
