This inaugural volume is a powerful groundbreaking book that is a collection of writings from brilliant scholar/practitioners speaking on lowrider history, pedagogy, culture, politics, society, justice, art, language, education, and their significance within the societal schema. Lowrider studies, influenced by beautifully painted hydraulic cars, bicycles with chrome, gold, murals and strolling slow and low, is a growing global field. This book is a must for all Latina/o/x/e studies, Chicana/o/x studies, ethnic studies, sociology, and cultural studies programs. This interdisciplinary and intersectional work emerged from of the 1st Annual International Lowrider Studies Conference, a public and no-cost grassroots effort organized by Save the Kids. Like Hip Hop, lowrider culture is a space and place to divert violence, promote peace, and build familia. Read this book slow and low.
