- **Event Name**: Recirculation - Angela Simms's FIGHTING FOR A FOOTHOLD
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 26 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Word Up welcomes Angela Simms to discuss her new book Fighting for a Foothold: How Government and Markets Undermine Black Middle-Class Suburbia: How Government and Markets Undermine Black Middle-Class Suburbia (out 2/24/26). 

"Fighting for a Foothold reveals the connection between a long legacy of racist policies in America and the struggle among local leadership in an iconic middle-class Black suburb to provide residents with the kinds of amenities that are taken for granted in neighboring middle-class White suburbs. In doing so, Angela Simms shows middle-class Black homeowners and their elected officials face an uphill battle as they attempt to reap the benefits of living in one of the most coveted spaces in the country—the suburbs."
—KARYN LACY, associate professor of sociology, University of Michigan
