Don’t miss this first event in MAPC’s MetroCommon Speaker Series! Join us for an invigorating lecture and discussion with the nationally-renowned Richard Rothstein, author of The Color of Law, about how government-imposed segregation laid the groundwork for today’s racial divisions in cities and suburbs, alike.
Open House-style community event at Castle Island Brewing in Norwood!
Some issues are bigger than one neighborhood, city, or town: transportation, housing, climate, jobs, equity, and more.
Your community is working with the region to plan a better future – together. We need you to tell us what you want the region to be like, long term.
The brewery is dog- and kid-friendly, so bring your furry friends along with the rest of the family! The listening session is Open House-style, so drop in any time between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m.! Light refreshments will be served.
RSVPs are encouraged so we have a rough head count. RSVP here: https://mapc.ma/CommListeningSession2
