Course Description
The course is the close domestic and global examination of the right to the city and the rights within a city. The conceptualization of geographies utilizes the social construction of Race and the political construction of space to 1) identify populations and organize them within the spatial arrangements of a city; 2) identify threats within racially selective representations of those populations in order to justify policies of racism, dispossession, and extraction, and 3) identify the levels of access, resource allocation, and future growth of populations and the spaces that they inhabit. The park, the stadium, the event, and the trail are but some of the examples that the effects of this social construction and political construction can be seen. This is done through and within the public and private space of a city.
