But what exactly is it and how potent a force is it? In Exurbia Now political and cultural journalist David Masciotra travels through the 'exurban and suburban parts of Chicagoland - the greater metropolitan area of Chicago - tracking the path of White Flight throughout the US and outlining how the exurban existence has evolved from 'slow living to right wing hostility toward broader American culture. Simultaneously outrageous and reassuring Masciotra delves into the dynamics that exist within exurban communities specifically how modern media the death of local media Christian nationalism and the ongoing neglect of public goods and natural resources have exacerbated the divide between the exurban world and the urban and suburban.
