DESCRIPTION:ICW Borderlands Series\n\nIn Conversation with Genevieve Carpio
 \, assistant professor in Chicana/o Studies at UCLA.\n\nCollisions at the 
 Crossroads: How Place and Mobility Make Race\n\nThere are few places where
  mobility has shaped identity as widely as the American West. In Collision
 s at the Crossroads\, Genevieve Carpio argues that mobility\, both permiss
 ion to move freely and prohibitions on movement\, helped shape racial form
 ation in the eastern suburbs of Los Angeles and the Inland Empire througho
 ut the twentieth century. By examining policies and forces as different as
  historical societies\, Indian boarding schools\, bicycle ordinances\, imm
 igration policy\, incarceration\, traffic checkpoints\, and Route 66 herit
 age\, she shows how local authorities constructed a racial hierarchy by al
 lowing some people to move freely while placing limits on the mobility of 
 others.\n\n \n\nDr. Genevieve Carpio is a professor in UCLA’s Department
  of Chicana/o Studies. Her research and teaching interests include relatio
 nal studies of race\, 20th century U.S. history\, (sub)urban history\, and
  spatial theory\, particularly as it relates to notions of place and mobil
 ity. She has a long-standing interest in the public and digital humanities
 \, particularly as it relates to the California Inland Empire.\n \nShe is 
 the author of a book on spatial mobility\, both permission to move freely 
 and prohibitions on movement\, and racial formation in the multiracial sub
 urbs of Los Angeles and the Inland Empire entitled Collisions at the Cross
 roads: How Place and Mobility Make Race (University of California Press\, 
 2019). She has also published in American Quarterly\, Journal of American 
 History\, Journal of Urban Affairs\, Western Historical Quarterly\, Casden
  Annual Review\, the Arcadia local history series\, and Information\, Comm
 unication and Society\, among other venues. She currently serves on the ed
 itorial board of Geohumanities\, a journal of the American Association of 
 Geographers\, and as a reviewer for several academic journals. \n\nBefore 
 joining UCLA\, Professor Carpio was a Postdoctoral Fellow at Yale Universi
 ty in the Department of History and the Program for Ethnicity\, Race\, and
  Migration. Carpio received a B.A. in Anthropology at Pomona College and w
 ent on to earn an M.A. in Urban Planning at the University of California\,
  Los Angeles. She completed her doctorate in the Department of American St
 udies and Ethnicity and a graduate certificate in Historic Preservation at
  the University of Southern California.\n \nProfessor Carpio is the recipi
 ent of two Ford Foundation Fellowships\, the Hellman Fellowship\, and the 
 UCLA Faculty Career Development Award. She has also received a USC Provost
  Fellowship and recognition as PAGE Fellow by Imagining America\, a consor
 tium of universities dedicated to public engagement.
