 ISITION\nBeginning in 1933 risk assessment maps developed by the Home Owne
 rs' Loan Corporation directly influenced the mortgage lending of private b
 anks\, the Federal Housing Administration\, and the Veterans Administratio
 n. The restriction of financing on the basis of race became known as redli
 ning. The Federal Housing Administration used and continued to update the 
 maps\, continued the HOLC’s use of race and the criteria of “inharmoni
 ous racial groups” in their ratings\, and recommended the use of raciall
 y restrictive covenants. Redlining codified the use of racial discriminati
 on to enhance real estate markets and formalized segregation as federal po
 licy. It also incepted redevelopment projects that resulted in widespread 
 displacement\, dislocation\, and dispossession. Like sharecropping\, redli
 ning systematically maintained racial-economic subordination to white citi
 zens\, federally defining the terms of property ownership on the basis of 
 race.\n\n&nbsp\;\nSPEAKER\nCameron Rowland\n\nCameron Rowland (American\, 
 born 1988) creates work that centers on the material operations of racial 
 capitalism that order everyday life. Rowland’s work relies on a material
 ist approach to the conditions of production that structure both instituti
 ons of subjection as well as their refusal. The work is grounded in a crit
 ique of property\, and the capacity for art to function as a medium of thi
 s critique.\n\nRowland’s work has been exhibited in solo exhibitions at 
 the Institute of Contemporary Arts\, London\; Museum of Contemporary Art\,
  Los Angeles\; Kunsthalle Freiburg\, Switzerland\; and Artists Space\, New
  York\, among others. Their work has recently been included in group exhib
 itions at Mudam\, Luxembourg\; Museum of Modern Art\, New York\; and Museu
 m of Fine Art\, Houston\; as well as others. Rowland is a 2019 MacArthur f
 ellow and currently lives and works in New York.\n\n&nbsp\;\nSeries Theme 
 -- Radical Black Space\nThe Spring 2022 Sciame Lecture series\, themed Rad
 ical Black Space\, brings together architects\, preservationists\, planner
 s\, artists\, and historians of color at a precipitous moment. The Movemen
 t for Black Lives demands that Americans from all walks of life confront r
 acism and its sordid impact on constructed environments\, and understand t
 he rich\, vital tradition of Black resistance\, innovation\, and creativit
 y. Speakers will touch on many questions: How do the places and things mad
 e by African Americans disrupt the racial status quo in the United States?
  How is difference celebrated? How is equity imagined and achieved? What c
 onstitutes anti-racist spatial practice? Radical Black Space shows that th
 e Black radical tradition is alive in art and architecture\, and that havi
 ng a handle on Black history is essential to understanding the present and
  shaping the future. Join us to find revolution in the everyday and to rec
 ognize the extraordinary places and objects that Black Americans make and 
 the stories they tell about themselves. Radical Black Space is convened by
  Marta Gutman and Jerome Haferd.\nSciame Lecture Series with additional fu
 nding provided by the Bernard &amp\; Anne Spitzer School of Architecture F
