Planning is racist by design. Accountability begins with naming white supremacy and the harm it causes. Hear how racist planning manifests on the ground through the stories of three advocates—Alex Contreras, Jimmy Recinos, and Sarah Syed— working within harmful structures in Los Angeles to co-create more just communities.
Stay after the Keynote to meet the co-creators of the Is Planning Racist Project for a conversation guided by Emmily De Los Santos, Jessica Sanclemente-Gomez, and Sarah Syed. Is Planning Racist is a racism tracking tool using the power of technology, data science, and mapping to document experienced racism as it occurs within the planning field within our workplaces, educational institutions, professional orgs, and across our communities and systems.
