"There’s no more natural nature," says the landscape architect @KateOrff. "Now it’s a matter of design." I wrote about her, and the idea of building with nature as we adapt to climate change, in this week's @NewYorker newyorker.com/magazine/2021/…

Can't wait to read it! it's thrilling how you continue to find new ways to connect people and place to climate work, to our great benefit. Congratulations!

Too many moms don't have access to transportation to get the care they need. So glad to partner with @SurgoVentures for the all-important pre-natal appts with the Rides for Moms program @uberhealth surgoventures.org/newsroom-a…

I always learn right alongside you! Sharing this so more people get to know about your amazing leadership in climate action.
A1: After college I worked as a #climatechange Junior Fellow @CarnegieEndow, where I met my role model & first woman mentor @stsay. Shin-pei taught me that it was not only okay to think outside-of-the-box, but that was where the best work existed. #WomenTalkSTEM #WHM

I fell in love with cities by riding their busses from end to end, getting a chance to see people and know neighborhoods up close. So glad busses are getting the attention they deserve.

Thanks to everyone who reached out today with their love and support. ❤️ Love is love, hate is hate. The recent violence against Asians remind me to stand united with all BIPOC. Here's one way those threads come together in my life: openspace.sfmoma.org/2021/02…

At its best placemaking feminizes #cities & the process of shaping them. #Placemaking should not only make #publicspace safe for #women & girls but enable places where women feel welcome, supported, & joyful. #InternationalWomensDay #safercities #IWD2021
"Society still hasn’t digested the fact that people with disabilities are everywhere." I talk to @QuemuelArroyo, the MTA's new accessibility chief, on the challenge of making the subway less of an obstacle course. curbed.com/2021/02/q-a-q-and…

This week in our edition of @Open_Space magazine at @SFMOMA , @TamikaButler and @jgmoore have a frank discussion examining the inequitable burden of emotional labor that black and brown people experience in the context of 'Participatory Urbanism."
"It’s so fraught, this idea of who gets to participate and who’s defining the parameters of participation..." -Tamika L. Butler "Because of course, the control of space is something that Black people have always understood, right?" -Justin Garrett Moore openspace.sfmoma.org/2021/02…
