Solutions of the Year: A Next City Reporters Roundtable

December 10, 2020
We have been amazed and grateful at the fierce dedication our writers displayed in responding to the unending tumult of this year. From the early days of COVID-19, they sought out the city dwellers determined to improve our health, housing, food access and more. But where do we go from here? In this time of fraught politics and an entrenched pandemic, with a new administration waiting in the wings, what stories should we watch in the coming year?
Join Next City for our first-ever journalists roundtable, with writers Oscar Perry Abello, Jared Brey and Emily Nonko, in a conversation moderated by Board Chair Eric Shaw. These three will discuss the people, programs and ideas that most inspired them this year the Philadelphia activists who organized encampments and pushed for surprising progress on housing; the activist bondholders pressuring investors to support racial justice; a program that places returning citizens in stable housing in private homes, an ....

Solutions of the Year: Solutions for Food Insecurity

December 9, 2020
The pandemic has exposed the stark gaps in this country’s social safety net. Healthy food access is one of those holes that families now struggle to fill. This year Next City has elevated numerous examples of the public health crisis spurring changes to food benefits, including online innovations that make SNAP more accessible, the advent of grocery vouchers and more. And in this time of food insecurity, the urban farming movement has leveraged city mutual aid networks to distribute seedlings, soil and produce to vulnerable populations. Each of the year’s best solutions addresses an immediate community need while illuminating a possible way forward after the economic and social devastation of the pandemic has lessened. These solutions represent not a return to “normal,” but a better path in which anyone regardless of race, class or zip code can access healthful food. Join us to learn how policymakers can pivot existing programs to respond to unexpe ....

Solutions of the Year: 3 Responses to the Nation's Reckoning on Racial Injustice – Next City

December 8, 2020
COVID-19, a deadly pandemic that has disproportionately struck Black and Brown communities. We are centuries into the equally pernicious plague of police violence toward unarmed Black Americans. Both realities are grounded in structural white supremacy. Both have made plain the pervasive inequity baked into the American Experiment. As our moderator, Andre Perry, says in his book, “Know Your Price,” “The deliberate devaluation of Blacks and their communities has had very real, far-reaching, and negative economic and social effects. … But there is nothing wrong with Black people that ending racism can’t solve.” The 2020 murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Rayshard Brooks, and numerous others have forced a confrontation with racial injustice. The conversations, the anger, the protests aren’t new; but these events lend them renewed urgency. How must we meet this moment, and move forward as one? Join Next City as we explore three specific respons ....

Solutions of the Year: Moving Money From Cops to Communities Keynote

December 8, 2020
We say their names. We never forget. Racial justice uprisings gained momentum during the Summer of 2020, fueled by the unrepentant police killings of unarmed Black and Brown Americans. Men, women and children were killed while walking. Driving. Sitting in cars. Selling cigarettes. Relaxing in the backyard. Holding a toy gun. Experiencing a mental health crisis. The policing system has been racist and unjust at its core. Calls to abolish, to defund, the police are ever louder, and more compelling.
So how do we get there? What does this look like in practice? How should cities redistribute their budget millions to keep communities healthy and safe? To advance the conversation, Next City welcomes Asantewaa Boykin and Cat Brooks, co-founders of the Anti Police-Terror Project. Brooks and Boykin have started a program, MH First, which sends trained volunteers to respond to people having psychiatric emergencies or problems with substance use, circumventing the po ....

Solutions of the Year: How Cities Can Promote Environmental Justice in Underserved Neighborhoods

Thursday, December 10, 2020
1:00pm - 2:00pm EST
Four years of science denial and regulatory backtracking have amplified the urgency to confront climate change. Absent national leadership, cities and communities have once again taken the lead in promoting nimble approaches to sustainability, renewable energy and environmental progress. For this event we will talk about some of the innovative ideas and promising solutions for energy and the environment that Next City has reported on this year.
The best of these approaches center environmental justice in underserved neighborhoods and empower low-income communities. Join us to hear more about innovations that include: electric school buses that reduce diesel pollution and send energy back to the city grid while charging; versatile and temporary installations that turn vacant properties into healthy, usable public spaces; programs that give low-income residents increased access to renewable energy; and more. ....
