In this timely book, Claire Jean Kim investigates the most prolonged episode of such conflict - the Flatbush Boycott of 1990, when Black nationalist and Haitian activists led a boycott and picketing campaign against two Korean-owned produce stores in Flatbush, Brooklyn. Drawing on years of in-depth interviewing, Kim helps us understand why Black activists engage in such collective actions and why other parties respond as they do."--Jacket Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 261-284) and index Notes English American Political Science Association Ralph J.
