Reimagining Blackness and Architecture

Architecture structures our daily lives. It shapes our homes, streets, neighborhoods, cities, and more. But who gets to create and occupy these spaces? In the United States, a long history of anti-Black racism has erased the stories of Black architects and communities and created spatial inequalities that are built into the physical environment. Reimagining Blackness and Architecture explores the relationship between architecture and Blackness as an identity and a lived experience. You’ll hear

• Recognize how race and racism shape architecture and the built environment
• Explore work by Black architects and artists shaping the built environment
• Find inspiration from Black creators’ paths and advocacy for better futures
