The Address Book

Building Healthy Places Book Club: The Address Book

ULI’s Building Healthy Places Book Club is designed to spark thought and conversation around health, social equity, and real estate.

Our next title is The Address Book: What Street Addresses Reveal About Identity, Race, Wealth, and Power. Author Deirdre Mask takes readers on a global journey through the complex and often hidden stories behind street names and their power to name, to hide, and to decide who counts and who doesn’t—and why. Participation is free and requires registration. All registered participants will receive the suggested reading schedule, along with an invitation to attend all virtual meetups:

Book Club Kick Off
September 3, 2020, 4:00 pm – 5:15 pm EDT
Help launch our second book club selection and introduce yourself!
There is no need to read the book prior to this session.
 
Mid-Book Discussion Groups
September 17, 2020, 4:00 pm – 5:15 pm EDT
Reflect, share, and apply observations from the first few chapters with the full group and in small group breakouts.
 
Talk with the Author
October 1, 2020, 4:00 pm – 5:15 pm EDT
Join author Deirdre Mask, live from London, for an interactive discussion facilitated by ULI’s Building Healthy Places staff.

Virtual meetups take place on Zoom and run from 4:00 pm to 5:15 pm EDT. Invitations to join an optional Slack discussion group will be distributed following the September 3rd Book Club Kick Off. Members and non-members may register to participate throughout the reading period running through October 1, 2020.

The Building Healthy Places Book Club is generously supported by ULI Foundation Governor Randall Lewis.

Please note that this event has passed and registration is closed.
