The one, the only, Jane Jacobs. This week's episode needs very little introduction. Kristen and Katrina talk about the latest documentary Citizen Jane: Battle for the City, and the implications of privilege in protest, women in urbanism, historic preservation, and the "bad guys" (and planning paradigm) that she fought against.
We are also excited to highlight our new outro Urbanist Women at Work! We’re looking forward to sharing your advice as women in urbanism on social media by using the hashtag #urbanistwomenatwork, or you can email us your anonymous submission at thirdwaveurbanism@gmail.com.
As always, you can keep up with our thoughts and send us your comments on Twitter or Instagram: Katrina can be found at @think_katrinaKristen can be found at @blackurbanist
And if you like these conversations and advocating for human-scale cities, you can donate to our efforts on our Patreon page at www.patreon.com/thirdwaveurbanism. Thank you all for listening!
