Reviews

Kinohi Nishikawa, author of Street Players: Black Pulp Fiction and the Making of a Literary Underground:
So conducts groundbreaking data analysis of modern and contemporary American literary production, making visible, at scale, the denial of opportunity, attention, and distinction to writers of color. An ambitious work in cultural analytics, Redlining Culture will be a model for future work in the field.
