As a public urban sociologist, I am passionate about studying people, environments and communities, comparing that with what we already know to create new perspectives on our society and sharing that with both the academic and public world.

I teach my students how we can understand our society and encourage them as well as myself to make that knowledge practical, applicable and useful on the ground via service learning and experiential learning.

I am honored to be part of Russell Craig's Crown series mural dedicated to honoring BIPOC activists in Philadelphia fighting to end and heal from systematic racism and inequality. 


Princeton's Mellon Forum on the Urban Environment: Predatory Development And Climate Change

Picture
With Dr.Knittle, I discussed how Black urban communities and communities in poverty are fighting the triple threat of gentrification, unemployment and climate change through local movements that advocate for more equitable forms of renewal. Jackson and Knittle will talk about how contemporary calls for urban transformation are tasked with facilitating large-scale transformation that helps prepare for environmental uncertainty without repeating past violence against marginalized communities.

Check out the recording here.
