Content preview
In 1990, neo-Marxist Davis explores the dark side of Los Angeles and reports on thehopelessness and despair of the post-industrial underclass - now largely defined by race,
ethnicity, immigrant status and gender - to an audience largely comprised of young,
disaffected intellectuals and academics.
Davis agrees with Ali Madanipour that the city itself has become a vast and continuous
system of exclusionary signs that residents read and obey, mostly on a subconscious level.
Los Angeles-based writer.
