Latest for @aeonmag - very grateful for the chance to reflect on legacies of environmental injustice and unfettered highway development in the Bronx my dad grew up in. We recorded an oral history of his life together, and I think he'd find it pretty cool to know it went somewhere

In this moving essay, author Katie Mulkowsky reflects on her late father and how his childhood in the Bronx, surrounded by the vast urban projects of Robert Moses, shaped his life. This is a story of profoundly human side of urban planning @kmulk_ bit.ly/45Sy9ql

An honour to have my Aeon essay featured on this "Best History Writing of 23" list, in very good company! Thank you @bunkhistory - here's to "revealing how we've normalised things that cause us harm"

You'll never guess how many history pieces we republished on Bunk last year. Give up? 2023! We've selected 20+23 of our favorites. It wasn't easy. We invite you to spend some time with this list. There's so much great stuff on there! bunkhistory.org/resources/best…

One of the most horrific and heartbreaking of our investigations: hospital by hospital in Gaza targeted, put under siege, invaded…mass graves of patients, children and medical staff desparately dug in courtyards. A step by step recon. of this systematic and widespread crime.

Our aggregation of news reports since 7 Oct suggests that hospitals in Gaza are subjected to a repeated pattern of intimidation, direct targeting, siege, and occupation by the Israeli military: …a-hospitals.forensic-architecture.org

Sick City by @kmulk_ "#UrbanPlanning is a strange field because you can essentially choose which side of history you want to be on: the one profiting off the master’s tools, or the one dismantling his proverbial house."

On the endurance of environmental history, racial slavery and neighborhood divestment. It would be unconscionable for #RenewableRikers to greenwash the same structures that the site has long upheld. Newest for @planningjustice

Plans to close a New York City prison and convert it into a renewable energy hub could either enact restorative justice through the built environment - or, spearhead green gentrification, writes RUPS alum Katie Mulkowsky blogs.lse.ac.uk/progressingpla…

The need for planners to consider how they operate within a racially unequal society has been on the UK planning agenda since the 1980s. But planning deregulation has exacerbated problems that disproportionately impact Black communities, writes Koen Rutten blogs.lse.ac.uk/progressingpla…

Excited to have been part of this - in a time when governments absolutely need to show up for their people. We have known for years that any dignified provisioning of housing, healthcare, or otherwise cannot be left to markets alone

Since 2013, tens of thousands of new homes have legally bypassed planning system in England, undermining placemaking, local democracy, jobs & wellbeing. Our new report explores devastating impacts PDR has had on efforts to plan for healthy & safe places. tcpa.org.uk/report-no-plac…

Why are planning students taught Robert Moses' destructive plans for NYC, but not June Jordan's Sunrise to Harlem, a plan to combat urban renewal & invest in public housing, development without displacement & residents' imaginations? #CiteBlackWomenSunday newyorker.com/culture/cultur…
