Architecture & Race: A Panel Discussion

Architecture, as a discipline and as a practice has an opportunity to take corrective action against a historic absence and silence of race and identity within the discourse. Conversations around these topics remain largely unexplored in schools. This panel discussion brings together innovators and teachers to discuss ways to radically transform institutions and the conceptions of power within the discipline of architecture. A Q&A will follow the discussion.
