Abstract

ABSTRACT New Orleans’s Claiborne Avenue is a liminal and rebellious space. It has signified the vibrant Black cultural and business sphere that countered Jim Crow segregation. It has signified adaptability in the face of urban renewal type clearance. And it continues to signify the potency of space for holding, hosting and emboldening Black life. Using a Black geographic reading of a community vision for this community’s future, I suggest this plan offers to our imagination a Black Mecca futurism that is informed by a lineage and living praxis of Black placemaking and spacious geographical imaginations.
