ULI’s Building Healthy Places Book Club: Know Your Price by Andre Perry
Registration is complimentary and open to all.
Our Summer/Fall title is Know Your Price: Valuing Black Lives and Property in America’s Black Cities. Author Andre Perry takes readers on a tour of six Black-majority cities whose assets and strengths are undervalued. Perry uncovers policies shaped by flawed perspectives of the past and present, it offers fresh insights on the historical effects of racism and how to limit them in the future.
Participation is free and requires registration. All registered participants receive a suggested reading schedule, weekly email thought prompts, and a link to attend two virtual meetups, including a talk with the author.
The ULI Building Healthy Places Book Club is generously supported by ULI Foundation Governor Randall Lewis.
