ASCE Article Spotlight

PictureClaiborne Expressway, New Orleans (2014)

​Read the ASCE Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion article called "How the interstate highway system connected - and in some cases segregated - America"  here. 

Kirk Harris, Ph.D., an associate professor in the urban planning department at the School of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee stated, "When you don’t understand your history and you don’t understand the nature of how systems have functioned for vulnerable communities and communities of color, and you fail to appreciate or understand those systems and their impacts over the long run and the inequalities they produce, you’re bound to reproduce them,” he says. “The fact that you may not have known about that history makes you complicit — so you must know.”
Congratulations to our President-Elect
