Specifically, Professor Lung-Amam will discuss her findings in her recent book The Right to Suburbia: Combating Gentrification on the Urban Edge, which investigates how marginalized communities in suburban Washington, DC have battled patterns of uneven, racialized development. The goal of the discussion will be to highlight how suburban residents have fought for the ”right to suburbia”, which refers to residents’ right to remain in their communities and benefit from urban investment. On campus, this talk will encourage student populations to reflect on the impact of suburban gentrification on marginalized communities. Through this discussion, this event will engage audiences in new research that discusses current movements for social justice in the urban context, with a particular focus on marginalized communities’ agency.

These risks are exacerbated by the fact that everything in our society, from the built environment to cultural practices around the world, emerged and were designed around a past climate that no longer exists. As the global atmosphere rapidly approaches 1.5°C of warming and carbon emissions continue to rise, how can we navigate this reality, manage growing physical risks, and create systems, practices, and structures that are prepared for the future? In this session, Alison will explore these questions, learn how to apply world-class climate model data and maps, and build the climate literacy that is essential for everyone living and working in our society today.
