Abstract from the distributor:
Inequality is intensifying in American cities with profound consequences for people’s well being and for broader society. This panel aims to make sense of where urban inequalities emerge, how they are perpetuated, and why they still exist. The role of community activism around social justice in American cities is addressed, as is strategic engagement with existing public policies and ongoing efforts to transform them.
Laura Pulido is Professor of American Studies and Ethnicity/Geography at the University of Southern California.
Nik Heynen is Associate Professor of Geography at the University of Georgia.
