Reviews

David Hugill's study of one American city illustrates in no uncertain terms the ways in which racial and other hierarchies of settler colonialism are literally built into the urban landscape. Deeply researched and powerfully articulate in its framing of Minneapolis's past and present, Settler Colonial City is a profoundly important work, contributing to the burgeoning literature on settler colonialism in North America and providing a model for scholarship on and in other places. -Coll Thrush, author of Native Seattle: Histories from the Crossing-Over Place This timely study elucidates how Minneapolis, as a settler colonial city built on Indigenous dispossession, continues to produce structural inequity through a racialized economy of power. David Hugill argues forcefully that the ongoing operations of settler colonial violence shapes postwar Minneapolis, including through a legacy of racist policing and entrenched racial disparities rooted in the history of wealth transfer through settler colonialism that defy the city's liberal reputation. -Jean M. O'Brien, University of Minnesota
