| | |
Veranstaltungskategorie Vortrag

Residential segregation is the physical separation of the living spaces of people from different identity groups. Racialized residential segregation was a significant component of American Jim Crow legislation and dismantling residential segregation was a focus of the Civil Rights Movement. This lecture examines how segregation continues to play a significant role in American social life and is responsible for the negative enduring legacy of environmental racism and injustice.
