GAPP and ACRU invite you to this virtual ZOOM tour of Over-the-Rhine.
Dr. Mark Mussman, education director for the Greater Cincinnati Coalition for the Homeless, will lead participants on a virtual tour of Over-the-Rhine. Using slides and his extensive research, he'll share Cincinnati history, including Native American history, colonial history, immigration history, and the influence of racism in housing (and many other aspects of life) in Cincinnati.
This virtual tour includes an introduction to the Over-the-Rhine People’s Movement, along with key locations and stories about how people in the neighborhood have come together to ensure that people (who have been historically pushed from their homes) maintain their ability to stay in Over-the-Rhine, regardless of economic and social impacts. This tour also shows how hostile design is used, and the impact of the loss of public space. Direct and indirect gentrification are explained and seen through real-life examples, including the West End.
PLEASE NOTE: THE ZOOM LINK WILL BE SENT 48 HOURS AND AGAIN 1 HOUR PRIOR TO THE EVENT.
