SUMMARY:LBB Foundation & LBB present Derek Hydra
DESCRIPTION:Join the Left Bank Books Foundation and Left Bank Books as we welcome Derek Hyra\, Professor of Public Administration and Policy and founding director of the Metropolitan Policy Center at American University. By delving into the real estate history of the St. Louis region and Baltimore\, Hyra shows how rounds of urban renewal decisions to segregate\, divest\, displace and gentrify Black communities advance neighborhood inequality. Join us as Hyra presents his new book “Slow and Sudden Violence: Why and When Uprisings Occur”. \n  \n“By exposing the deep roots of contemporary racial unrest\, Derek Hyra lays bare the failures of urban policy to overcome social inequalities as they have metastasized over time. His prescriptions for addressing the multiple effects of what he calls slow violence in such places as Ferguson and Baltimore cry out for action in the private as well as the public sector.”–Howard Gillette\, Jr.\, author of “The Paradox of Urban Revitalization: Progress and Poverty in America’s Post-Industrial Era”. \n  \nHyra will personalize and sign copies after the presentation! Personalized and signed copies can be mailed anywhere in the country. Please order personalized copies before noon on September 10. \n  \nRSVP here. Order the book here. You can also watch the event on Left Bank Books’ YouTube channel.
