Inequality in Cities

Course #: SOCIOL 311

Description:
This course will discuss how inequality manifests in cities, including segregation, poverty, and gentrification. The course will also study historical housing policies, such as redlining, to better understand these contemporary issues. This course focuses not just on problems but what we can do to make our cities more equitable places to live. We focus on Boston whenever possible, connecting sociological ideas to our own city.
