    RACING THE CITY INTENTIONAL INTEGRATION AND THE PURSUIT OF RACIAL JUSTICE IN POST -WWII AMERICA A Dissertation Submitted to The Temple University Graduate Board in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Abigail Perkiss May, 2010 Examining Committee Members: David Farber, Advisory Chair, History Bryant Simon, History Beth Bailey, History Kevin Kruse, External Member, History, Princeton University ii ABSTRACT Racing the City: Intentional Integration and the Pursuit of Racial Justice in Post-War America Abigail L. Perkiss Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2010 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: David Farber My dissertation, Racing the City: Intentional Integration and the Pursuit of Racial Justice in Post-WWII America , examines the creation, experience, and meaning of intentionally integrated residential space in the latter half of the twentieth century. Entering into the growing historiographical conversations on post-war American cities and the northern civil rights movement, I argue that with a strong commitment to maintaining residential cohesion and a heightened sense of racial justice in the wake of the Second World War, liberal integrationists around the country embarked on grassroots campaigns seeking to translate the ideals of racial equality into a blueprint for genuine interracial living. Through innovative real estate efforts, creative marketing techniques, and religious activism, pioneering community groups worked to intentionally integrate their neighborhoods, to serve as a model for sustainable urbanity and racial justice in the United States. My research, centered on the northwest Philadelphia neighborhood of West Mount Airy, chronicles a liberal community effort that confronted formal legal and governmental policies and deeply entrenched cultural understandings; through this integration project, activists sought to redefine post-war urban space in terms of racial inclusion.
