Description

An expansive guide for resistance and solidarity across this storied region.   Richmond and Central Virginia are a historic epicenter of Americas racialized history. This alternative guidebook foregrounds diverse communities in the region who are mobilizing to dismantle oppressive systems and fundamentally transforming the space to live and thrive. Featuring personal reflections from activists, artists, and community leaders, this book eschews colonial monuments and confederate memorials to instead highlight movements, neighborhoods, landmarks, and gathering spaces that shape social justice struggles across the history of this rapidly growing area.   The sites, stories, and events featured here reveal how community resistance and resilience remain firmly embedded in the regions landscape. A Peoples Guide to Richmond and Central Virginia counters the narrative that elites make history worth knowing, and sites worth visiting, by demonstrating how ordinary people come together to create more equitable futures.
