Hardback. Condizione: New. In the early twentieth century, African Americans created an agricultural community in northern Baja California, Mexico, which they called Little Liberia. As a transborder activist community, the people of Little Liberia sought to counter the forces of White supremacy in North America, primarily by building a stable financial and political foundation for African Americans. The story of this community, told in full for the first time in Little Liberia: A Dream of Black Freedom in the US-Mexico Borderlands, is one of Black innovation and cross-cultural enterprise at a time of racial persecution and political turbulence-a little known but instructive chapter in the intersecting history of Black America and the borderlands of the Southwest. Organized by African American businessmen chiefly from California and Oklahoma, Little Liberia began as the Lower California Mexican Land Development Company, which strove to build African American economic power through agricultural production outside the nation's borders. Its sister organization, the International Community Welfare League, dedicated itself to fighting the spread of White supremacy by unifying African Americans, Indigenous peoples, and people of Mexican descent. Laura Hooton describes how these entities jointly navigated US-Mexico politics during World War I and the Mexican Revolution, including issues of land ownership, immigration, race and ethnicity, and imperialism and colonialism. Her book traces the community's shifting business focus, geographic scope, and membership over its eleven-year history-its formation in Los Angeles, recruitment in Oklahoma after the Tulsa Race Massacre, expansion of relations with Mexican politicians, and highly public collapse.Little Liberia was born out of the intersection of Black spaces and borderland places, and its story, in Hooton's deft telling, reveals the crucial role of that intersection in the history of race, borderlands, immigration, social movements, and White supremacy in the United States and Mexico.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. Farming across Borders uses agricultural history to connect the regional experiences of the American West, northern Mexico, western Canada, and the North American side of the Pacific Rim, now writ large into a broad history of the North American West. Case studies of commodity production and distribution, trans-border agricultural labor, and environmental change unite to reveal new perspectives on a historiography traditionally limited to a regional approach.Sterling Evans has curated nineteen essays to explore the contours of "big" agricultural history. Crops and commodities discussed include wheat, cattle, citrus, pecans, chiles, tomatoes, sugar beets, hops, henequen, and more. Toiling over such crops, of course, were the people of the North American West, and as such, the contributing authors investigate the role of agricultural labor, from braceros and Hutterites to women working in the sorghum fields and countless other groups in between.As Evans concludes, "society as a whole (no matter in what country) often ignores the role of agriculture in the past and the present." Farming across Borders takes an important step toward cultivating awareness and understanding of the agricultural, economic, and environmental connections that loom over the North American West regardless of lines on a map. In the words of one essay, "we are tied together . . . in a hundred different ways.".…
