The #Fontana Speedway redevelopment is both materially and symbolically significant. The speedway itself was a redevelopment of a parcel of the old #KaiserSteel plant. #SoCal history aficionados and #MikeDavis readers know that Kaiser Steel was one of the core anchors of the #InlandEmpire region’s WWII and postwar industrial economy.

We lost #MikeDavis last month.

I joined a chorus of voices sharing the impact of the late urban historian. I mean every word 🤍 #EmbeddedPlanning praxis exists because of his teachings.

Read the tributes to Davis in the latest piece from his mentee, Mike The PoeT Sonksen.

Boy oh boy -- Bryan Palmer wrote one of the best memorial essays on Mike Davis that I've read thus far.

May we all channel Davis's anger and hope.

The impact of advertising decisions might be a good thing for the future of free discourse actually: e.g. 83% “expect quality brands to advertise on quality websites”. (https://www.reachsolutions.co.uk/resources/insight/in-safe-hands) Twitter is highly dependent on this revenue.

Dear friends, I don‘t want to worry, but did you check out #MikeDavis, which was joined by #ElonMusk in his request to „name & shame“…

Dear friends, I don‘t want to worry, but did you check out #MikeDavis, which was joined by #ElonMusk in his request to „name & shame“ as well as „counter-boycott“ unruly companies? Mike Davis is heading the far-right „Internet Accountability Project“. What are his plans? (1/3)

Le chercheur et activiste américain Mike Davis est mort

J'avais lu *Au-delà de Blade Runner* il y a quelques années, et avait été marquée par cette analyse sombre et puissante de la mégapole de Los Angeles comme lieu d'emprisonnement...

City of Quartz, temporarily free to download, is a great book with an excellent chapter on the history of exclusionary suburbs in California. It’s the much less talked-about first stage of the homeowner revolution that led to Prop 13.

RIP #MikeDavis. https://www.versobooks.com/books/2762-city-of-quartz

Gestern starb der US-amerikanische Historiker, Stadtsoziologe und Sozialist #MikeDavis. Mit ihm verliert die Welt einen ihrer größten und klügsten Kämpfer – für den internationalen #Sozialismus, gegen #Imperialismus & #Klimakatastrophe. Möge ihm die Erde leicht sein! #AndiesemTag

È morto #MikeDavis, autore che ebbe una grande capacità predittiva. Città di quarzo rimane uno dei più bei libri mai scritti sulle dinamiche urbane.

.. what #MikeDavis’ work.. his historic timeline of corruption, racial strife and real estate speculation provides a road map of where we are today as a city, county and region... Arellano noted in his column that the “environmental calamities” being experienced today were predicted in Davis’ 1998 book, “#EcologyOfFear.” Two years before the L.A. riots, the #ProphetOfDoom wrote about the racial and economic injustices that finally boiled over.
