ULI Chicago WLI Presents: Equity in Real Estate | Segregation in the Modern Age
ULI Chicago WLI Presents:
Equity in Real Estate | Segregation in the
Modern Age
Confronting the Fallout of
Inequality
Tuesday,
November 17, 2020
Join
the ULI Chicago Woman’s Leadership Initiative (WLI) for a series titled “Equity
in Real Estate.” The series will take an in-depth look at some of the
structural causes of racial discrimination in real estate, and some of the
solutions. The
second part of the series will feature an interview with Chicago’s own WBEZ reporter
Natalie Moore, discussing her work documenting segregation and
inequality.
Natalie’s
reporting explores the continuing fallout of overtly and covertly racist laws
and policies in the post-Jim Crow era and modern policies that perpetuate
segregation and inequality. She has documented the dismantling, and
efforts to rebuild, Chicago’s historic Black middle class, drawing on her own
experiences and observations growing up in a Black middle-class household in
Chicago.
We look forward to exploring these topics with her, having gained new
perspective as to how the ongoing COVID-19 crisis exposes and exacerbates
existing inequality. Natalie will be interviewed by ULI Chicago Women's Leadership Initiative Co-Chair
Collete English Dixon, who is the Executive Director of Marshall Bennett
Institute of Real Estate at Roosevelt University in Chicago.As with its popular Breakthrough Series, WLI is
highlighting female leaders in Chicago’s real estate industry and civic
community.
This special “Equity in Real
Estate” series will provide a “deeper dive” on issues that are endemic,
systemic, and historic, yet more relevant and urgent than ever. To be part of the solution, you must be part of
the conversation – everybody is welcome to attend!
