Come out on Thursday, November 12th from 7 to 9 p.m. for our Reparation Salon #9 co-hosted by Rough Drafts with Dr. Akira Drake Rodriguez and Karen Smith Drums for a lively conversation about reparations and claiming urban space. Rodriguez's research examines the ways that disenfranchised groups re-appropriate their marginalized spaces in the city to gain access to and sustain urban political power. She is the author of Diverging Space for Deviants: The Politics of Atlanta’s Public Housing (UGA Press, 2021). Karen Smith Drums will offer rhythms to support our engagement. Food provided by Kilimanjaro Restaurant. Let us know you can make it out here.
