What Does Eugenics Mean To Us? Episode 5: Race and space

The places and spaces we inhabit profoundly affect our lives and how we live them in ways we need to think about more critically. At the launch of the project that is the subject of today's episode, Kamna Patel spoke to how people have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic by saying "It is not who we are and what we eat that will kill us, but where we live and where we work." Subhadra’s guests in this episode came together to write a curriculum to help students and researchers of the built environment be more mindful about the ways in which their discipline actively reinforces and reproduces racism and ableism.Transcript: www.ucl.ac.uk/racism-racialisation/transcript-what-does-eugenics-mean-us-episode-5This conversation was recorded on 21st April 2021Host: Subhadra Das, Critical Eugenics Researcher, UCL Sarah Parker Remond CentreGuests: Kamna Patel is Associate Professor at the Bartlett Development Planning Unit.Yasminah Beebeejaun is Associate Professor at the Bartlett School of Planning.George Burridge is Senior Teaching and Learning Officer at the Bartlett Faculty Admissions Office.Producer: Cerys BradleyMusic: Blue Dot Sessions'Race' and Space: What is 'race' doing in a nice field like the built environment (The Bartlett, UCL Faculty of the Built Environment, 2020): www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/sites/bartlett/files/race_and_space_pdf_final.pdfOther authors of the curriculum were Solomon Zewolde, Tania Sengupta and Catalina Ortiz.Race, space and architecture: towards an open-access curriculum (LSE Department of Sociology, 2019) by Huda Tayob and Suzanne Hall: eprints.lse.ac.uk/100993/www.ucl.ac.uk/racism-racialisation/what-does-eugenics-mean-uswww.ucl.ac.uk/racism-racialisation/podcasts Hosted on Acast.
