The Power of Place: Built by the People Themselves

Author Lindsey Bestebreurtje explores segregation and racialized zoning and planning laws in Arlington to see how these policies impacted the County’s growth. She’ll investigate the race-based policies at the dawn of Arlington’s growth, and continued into restrictive covenants, planning laws, and how Arlington’s communities – both Black and white – grew together and in opposition.
