520 "Interweaves the histories of U.S. urban crisis and
imperial migration from Latin America. Pushed to migrate
by political and economic circumstances shaped by the long
history of U.S. intervention in Latin America, poor and
working-class Latinos then had to reckon with the
segregation, joblessness, disinvestment, and profound
stigma that plagued cities during the crisis era,
particularly in the Rust Belt. For many Puerto Ricans and
Dominicans, there was no "American Dream" awaiting them in
Lawrence; instead, Latinos struggled to build lives for
themselves in the ruins of industrial America"--|cProvided
