描述
The publication stems from a series of conversations with architects, academics, and activists about the role of architecture in social justice. Eight accessible chapters delve into topics such as being an activist in architecture, how architectural practice can include more diverse perspectives, how education shapes the architect’s image, and a women’s history of architectural practice in Jutland. The book continues to discuss how race, religion, and architecture are co-implicated, how architects can learn from queer spatial practices, develop caring relationships with the more-than-human, and finally, how minoritarian futurisms can illuminate more just and joyful architectural futures.
The article in IndesignLive highlights the book’s powerful discussions, which challenge architects, designers, and planners to think beyond aesthetics. From tackling gender and racial inequities to exploring the socio-economic impacts of design decisions, the book presents diverse perspectives from architects, academics, and activists.
