Sacramento’s Past and Present Immigrant Religious Spaces |
|
Join urban geographer and co-chair of our Immigration Justice Team Robin Datel on a tour of religious/spiritual places reflecting Sacramento’s history of immigration. The exact mix of stops on the tour will be determined in part by research conducted in Robin’s urban geography field class at Sacramento State during the Spring 2019 semester. To be included will be places of worship in the Southside neighborhood (located just south of Sacramento’s state office district), which has been an immigrant reception area for generations. Japanese, Portuguese, Mexican, and Pakistani spiritual spaces are among those present. Other destinations will include temples, mosques, and churches in more suburban settings, which have become in many cases the new immigrant gateways.
The tour will involve travel by automobile and some blocks of walking. I plan to rent a van, so we can be together as we move around the city. We will have lunch in a restaurant in an immigrant commercial district, probably Little Saigon. We will return to Davis by 5 p.m.
