THE MAPPING INEQUALITY PROJECT
March 4, 2021 12:00pm to 1:00pm
The Mapping Inequality Project created a foundational resource for unprecedented research, education, organizing, and policy advocacy on redlining and current environmental challenges. It provides publicly accessible digitized versions of redlining maps for about 200 cities. This has already generated an explosion of trailblazing work in the area of environmental justice (EJ) and systemic racism. Two of its founders will discuss the genesis, philosophy, methodology, and impact of this game changing project.
Featured Speakers:
Dr. Robert Nelson, Director, Digital Scholarship Laboratory, University of Richmond
Dr. LaDale Winling, Associate Professor of History, Virginia Tech
Moderated by Charles Lee, Senior Policy Advisor for Environmental Justice, EPA
