Can we talk more about suburbs? 'Social services have not caught up with the needs of residents in sprawling suburbs. #Aurora is addressing auto-oriented dev. w/ mobile 'public spaces' Advancing equity in suburbs w/ suburbfutures.org + @BrookingsMetro #mobilityjustice
Brookings Metro@BrookingsMetro

.@eldorn: Aurora, Colorado’s racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic diversity is largely representative of the present and future of U.S. suburbs, which have seen a significant rise in residents of color over the last two decades. brook.gs/3zWMrrB

what are your preferred terms or phrasing instead of saying non-human or other-than-human? I often use more-than-human (thank to @mr_tumnus during our Wassan Island trip in 2015?) but also don't like the hierarchy implied. #earthlings

Very large trucks-like this taking two spaces- & SUVs aren't the problem. They're a symptom of an under-regulated, profit-hungry, auto industry and the complicity of @NHTSAgov @USDOT and @SecretaryPete for not demanding reasonable safety and climate standards for all vehicles

A question for the design community - What are the top design theories (movements, ways of knowing etc) that you think emerging designers should know?

I am often asked 'what exactly do you mean by no borders" So I wrote on what borders are, why we need to abolish borders, and how movements are defying & dismantling borders. w/thanks to Robin Kelley, Adom Getachew, Deborah Chasman, Hannah Liberman. bostonreview.net/articles/there…

People who are sick… need health care. People who are homeless… need homes. People who are poor… need money. If the “free market” does not provide that, the answer is *not* a series of nonprofits. The answer is universal health care, housing, & income.

In 1791, the Second Amendment was written. In 1847, the bullet was invented. Thus, the Second Amendment only applies to muskets.

Opened my Twitter mentions this morning, can confirm that defending suburbs is an occupational hazard.

we will continue to have many spaces that no amount of money can activate as public since the design was married to the money, already divorced from community imagination. Hence investing in relationships as precursors to design actions...

Yes and... I was reminded after a recent trip to a high rise suburban development outside of Toronto that, unless we shift capital sources/structures for profit-driven projects that lack civic and social infrastructure...
Ethan Kent@ebkent

@eldorn Investing in relationships & inclusivity without changing the designed spaces that perpetuate polarization & the breakdown of relationships, isn't enough. #Placemaking can enable (pluralistic)relationships & designed spaces to build each-other up in a virtuous cycle.

What we invest in, we design, and what we design, perpetuates our lived experiences. Invest in relationships, invest in depolarization, invest in plurality.
