Working Groups

At CSSD, we fund up working groups annually that are led by Columbia and Barnard faculty to engage in inquiry around inequality and its public dissemination.

The Center currently has one working group under our theme of Crisis.

Crisis probes and historicizes the myriad crises unfolding in the present, how crisis has become a seemingly everyday condition, and the ways in which crises experiences and impacts fracture along racial, class, and gender lines.

Black Archipelago and the Crisis of Place

We consider critically and recast responsibly narratives about how the production of Black space is foundational to imaginative Black placemaking, self-actualization, and ways to catalogue future and existing spaces.
