DESCRIPTION:Local Histories of Segregation, from the Bay Area to Hartford, CT\n\nHost: 
 Othering & Belonging Institute at UC Berkeley\n\nDate & Time: Wednesday, 
 March 30, 2022, 11am - 1pm PT / 2pm - 4pm ET\n\nWatch here: 
 https://belonging.berkeley.edu/local-histories-segregation-event\n\n\nMany 
 of the most powerful efforts to address and solve racial inequality are 
 local, based upon unique community histories, experiences, leadership and 
 organizing. \n\nAs an aid to these efforts, local scholars, historians and 
 community members have created or curated reports, articles and essays 
 which tell stories of racial inequality, and documenting the experiences 
 and policies that sustain it. These "local histories" of racial inequality 
 and racial segregation are a powerful tool for building awareness of the 
 often overlooked or obscure origins of these conditions, just as larger 
 histories of race and segregation have done nationally.\n\nWe are proud to 
 feature three brilliant authors who have helped create reports on local 
 histories for the San Francisco Bay Area and Hartford, Connecticut. They 
 will not only share their stories, but also their processes and methods. We 
 will also get into the nuts and bolts of how to create your own histories, 
 how to find data, and how to collaborate for greater impact.\n\nSpinning 
 out of the Othering & Belonging Institute's "Roots of Structural Racism 
 Project," where we continue to compile every "local history" of segregation 
 we can find into a repository, this event will tell stories in the hopes of 
 inspiring more people and organizations to undertake such efforts in their 
 own communities.\n\n\nSPEAKERS\n\n--Susan Eaton, Professor of Practice in 
 Social Policy at Brandeis University; author of A Steady Habit of 
 Segregation: The Legacy and Continuing Harm of Residential Segregation in 
 the Hartford, Ct. Region.\n\n--Rasheed El Shabazz, journalist, photographer 
 and historian; co-author of 'Alameda is our Home': African Americans and 
 the Struggle for Housing in Alameda, California, 1860-present\n\n--Nicole 
 Montojo, Housing Research Analyst for the Othering & Belonging Institute; 
 co-author of Roots, Race, & Place: A History of Racially Exclusionary 
 Housing in the San Francisco Bay Area.\n\n--Sarah Crowell (moderator), 
 Artistic Director Emeritus, Destiny Arts Center; Strategic Partnerships, 
 Othering and Belonging Institute\n\n
