The Community Design Center Rochester hosted a presentation that asked attendees to consider: What is the city of the future in the face of a global pandemic and looming climate crisis? Can we co-create a vision for an ideal urban habitat? What role should womxn and BIPOC individuals play in crafting the equitable city? Looking through an anthropological and feminist lens, Katrina Johnston-Zimmerman advocated for a city that is heart-centered, anti-racist, and revives a way of looking at our cities as habitats and ecosystems, rather than products or economic engines.
Q&A session begins at 39:42.
