Where have ‘third places’ gone?
from Just Asking
Where do you go when you’re not at home or at work? Is there a third public place you frequent, where you connect with neighbours and strangers? Placemaker Jay Pitter says, “Third spaces are the original sites of democracy.” Pitter, author of the book Black Public Joy: No Permit or Permission Required, joins Just Asking alongside urban planner Houssam Elokda, who works on designing inclusive and healthier communities at Happy Cities.
