Queering Urbanism: Insurgent Spaces in the Fight for Justice Paperback - 2024
by Stathis G. Yeros
From the rear cover
"It is challenging to find a book that gives not just an account of a specific place and people but a theory of how queer space works, how it becomes queer. This is that book."--Robert Self, author of American Babylon: Race and the Struggle for Postwar Oakland
"In his powerful account of marginalized and dispossessed populations in the San Francisco Bay Area occupying, creatively reworking, and radically transforming their built environments, Stathis Yeros shows how people pursue justice by turning space into place. This is a timely work that offers insight into a pressing problem not just for San Francisco but for our understanding of cities themselves."--Susan Stryker, author of Transgender History and codirector of Screaming Queens: The Riot at Compton's Cafeteria
"This lively and illuminating book provides a new and needed history of San Francisco since the 1960s, tracing how LGBTQ people remade public and private spaces while contesting the bounds of normative citizenship. Moving from SROs to renovated Victorians, lesbian bars to community land grants, Yeros revives vital questions about how queer and trans communities remake the cities they call home."--Stephen Vider, author of The Queerness of Home: Gender, Sexuality, and the Politics of Domesticity after World War IIDetails
