The Civic Design Center presents a screening of the 17-minute film “Segregated By Design,” which shows how the history of federal, state and local governments unconstitutionally segregated major metropolitan areas in the US through law and policy. Following the screening will be a panel discussion presented by the Nashville Ledger about how decades of policies have reshaped Nashville’s black neighborhoods, including urban redevelopment, interstates and redlining, past and present, and what can be done to make change.
