A forum on race, transportation and urban development scheduled for tomorrow night at Loyola University will include Gerald Neily, who has been regularly discussing these topics in detail on his award-winning blog, Baltimore InnerSpace, and on The Brew.
Also on the podium, as part of Loyola’s annual “Law & the City Panel,” will be Antero Pietila, author of “Not in my Neighborhood: How Bigotry Shaped a Great American City,” and Tamika Gauvin from the Baltimore Red Line project.
If you’d like to hear a lively and informed debate about the proposed Red Line (former Baltimore city transportation planner Neily has been a relentless critic) and some no-holds-barred observations on racism’s impact on Baltimore (longtime journalist Pietila has arguably written the definitive book on this) stop in.
Elizabeth J. Kennedy, Assistant Professor in the Law & Social Responsibility Department at at Loyola’s Sellinger School of Business & Management, will moderate.
The event is taking place on Wednesday, February 13th from 6:30-8:00 p.m., in the 4th Floor Program Room in the Andrew White Student Center.
