Now more than ever, it's imperative that the field of economic development embrace racial equity and shared prosperity as its core mission. The most recent HR&A newsletter features a piece I wrote calling for a seismic shift in our work.

A great interview with my partner, Judith Taylor, providing a thoughtful take on the structural racism within historic land use policy.

[HR&A Advisors @hraadvisors]

Los Angeles may not have statues of slave traders but its land use is a monument to structural racism

HR&A Partner Judith Taylor talks with @francesanderton about racism, land use in LA, and what developers can do about it. Listen on @kcrw:

I’ve long thought that ULI had the potential to go deeper into the dynamics that shape our cities, and be a force for positive change. @erothman does a great job of putting that into words at this important time in our nation.

[HR&A Advisors @hraadvisors]

Our industry needs to move forward on racial equity now, or get left behind.

In this week's #AJustAndResilientRecovery newsletter @erothman calls on urban development leadership to recognize our history and diversify the industry.

BREAKING: Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo has a message for Trump “on behalf of the police chiefs of this country: please, if you don’t have something constructive to say, keep your mouth shut.” Wow. Absolutely. More of this. From everyone.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

I can imagine no other president in my lifetime failing to address the nation in a prime time speech during a crisis such as this. On the other hand, I cannot imagine another president whose words would be less welcome by so many of his fellow citizens.

[Cary Hirschstein @CaryHirschstein]

A great interview with my fellow HR&A partner @jeffphebert on managing disasters in Houston.

Great interview by my colleagues on the importance of investing in open space.

[HR&A Advisors @hraadvisors]

“I hope that we can look back 10 or 15 years from now and say: we needed to invest more in parks and we did”

Read our interview with Jayne Miller, pres and CEO of @pittsburghparks, on how parks leaders are responding to the COVID-19 crisis.
