In \u003ci\u003eSettler Colonial City\u003c\/i\u003e, David Hugill confronts this culture of organized forgetting by arguing that Minnesota's largest city is enduringly bound up with the power dynamics of settler-colonial politics. Examining several distinct Minneapolis sites, \u003ci\u003eSettler Colonial City\u003c\/i\u003e tracks how settler-colonial relations were articulated alongside substantial growth in the Twin Cities Indigenous community during the second half of the twentieth century--creating new geographies of racialized advantage. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStudying the Phillips neighborhood of Minneapolis in the decades that followed the Second World War, \u003ci\u003eSettler Colonial City\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates how colonial practices and mentalities shaped processes of urban reorganization, animated non-Indigenous \"advocacy research,\" informed a culture of racialized policing, and intertwined with a broader culture of American imperialism. It reveals how the actions, assumptions, and practices of non-Indigenous people in Minneapolis produced and enforced a racialized economy of power that directly contradicts the city's \"progressive\" reputation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUltimately, \u003ci\u003e Settler Colonial City\u003c\/i\u003e argues that the hierarchical and racist political dynamics that characterized the city's prosperous beginnings are not exclusive to a bygone era but rather are central to a recalibrated settler-colonial politics that continues to shape contemporary cities across the United States. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavid Hugill is assistant professor of geography and environmental studies at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada.
