Reviews

""A refreshing perspective on the intersection of art, activism, and community dynamics, Place-Keepers focuses on Indigenous and Black Latinx artists while also emphasizing the rich heterogeneity within these communities. Jessica Lopez Lyman celebrates the ingenuity of these artists while providing a much-needed exploration of the vibrant art scene in Minnesota.""-Arlene DÁvila, author of Latinx Art: Artists, Markets, and Politics   ""Masterfully written and convincingly argued, Place-Keepers focuses on creative communities of co-resistance to examine how Latina and gender noncomforming artists navigate the settler colonial landscape. With close attention to Latinx, Indigenous, and BIPOC communities in Minnesota, Jessica Lopez Lyman paints a vivid picture of activism taking many forms, including through cultural production and artistic creation.""-MarÍa Eugenia Cotera, coeditor of Chicana Movidas: New Narratives of Activism and Feminism in the Movement Era
