Oct 26 | A Right To The City: The Past and Future of Urban Equity @ ACM

FREE SYMPOSIUM

For the first time in human history, more than half of the world’s population lives in cities. This unprecedented rate of urbanization has presented tremendous challenges for communities trying to achieve sustainable and equitable growth. In conjunction with the Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum’s 50th anniversary exhibition, “A Right to the City,” this symposium convenes scholars, organizers/activists, nonprofit leaders, and others for timely conversations about how the American city has been shaped by more than a half-century of unequal and unjust growth, but also how communities are mobilizing to work toward a more equitable future.
