Using interviews with leaders and participants, as well as
historical archives, the author documents three interracial sites
where white Americans put themselves into unprecedented
relationships with African Americans, Mexican Americans, and Asian
Americans. In teen summer camps in the New York City and Los
Angeles areas, students from largely segregated schools worked and
played together; in Washington, DC, families fought blockbusting
and white flight to build an integrated neighborhood; and in San
Antonio, white community activists joined in coalition with Mexican
American groups to advocate for power in a city government
monopolized by Anglos. Women often took the lead in organizations
that were upsetting patterns of men's protective authority at the
same time as white people's racial dominance.
