街道歧视吗?

What Is It

City streets play an important role in our everyday lives. We commute to work, walk our dogs, meet our friends, and stage protests on city streets. In theory, streets are open for anyone to physically access. But do streets, by their design, actually discriminate against certain people? If so, who has less access to city streets? Is the design of our cities a political matter? Can we even talk about cities as being just or unjust by design? Or are they simply inconvenient, or poorly designed, for some? Josh and Ray hit the streets with Shane Epting from the Missouri University of Science and Technology, Co-Director of thePhilosophy of the Cityresearch group.

We are not going to design

我们不会通过设计来摆脱歧视,尤其是在一段对话和博客帖子中,似乎暗示公园长凳的好设计是为无家可归者提供床铺。这也是把社会工作强加给我们警察的错误前提,我可能会在我们的警察局加上无政府主义者。

社会不公正需要尊重人权的根本正义,而不是设计标准。伟大的设计是有帮助的,但我们是在打磨垃圾而不是重写宪法。打磨粪便永远都是设计的职责。
