- 요약This dissertation traces an overlooked grassroots planning tradition, led by Black women, to counter racial segregation, exclusion, and discrimination in an understudied setting: the urban periphery. The Antelope Valley and the Inland Empire, two inland Southern California areas long shaped by white spatial imaginaries, have nonetheless been home to Black households for generations and are increasingly so due to ongoing Black suburbanization and displacement. In this study, I analyze how Black people worked collectively to transform these landscapes of entrenched racial inequality.Through a conjunctural analysis using qualitative research methods, I foreground three seismic moments in which Black women impactfully mobilized their communities to disrupt the existing spatial order, by planning placemaking and policy interventions affirmative of Black life. In the first, club women initiated the midcentury development of a park in Sun Village, a Black town in the Antelope Valley. In the second, following the Watts Rebellion in 1965, Black mothers mobilized hundreds of Riverside and San Bernardino residents to desegregate their de facto segregated public schools, by organizing boycotts, opening Freedom Schools, and advocating for busing and open enrollment policies. In the third, mothers in the Antelope Valley are leading anti-carceral efforts to reduce police presence in public spaces, particularly schools. I find that particular social, cultural, historical, political, and economic forces interacted to form conjunctures in which Black women effectively built counterhegemonic movements in urban peripheries, places distinctly marked by inequitable development and a relative dearth of social safety nets. Among these forces are: the emergence of replicable organizing models and programs, and rising political will for direct action amongst the public and for progressive change by government officials, during the Second Reconstruction and Third Reconstruction; and, contradictory development trajectories creating a paradox of Black economic opportunity and residential exclusion.Within this grassroots planning tradition, I find that Black women's use of rival geographies to organize their communities reflect spatial practices of fugitivity, including marronage, garreting, and plot-making. Other significant characteristics of this tradition include a capacious ethic of collective care and the feminization of socially reproductive labor.
