Understanding Resegregation
1. Really segregation 2.0
• A new kind of segregation
• Not your grandparents segregation, but it is still
segregation
• Being trapped v. moving too often and too far
2. Both kinds of segregation still exist, and operate
together. One does not replace the other
3. Does not imply segregation desegregation
resegregation
4. Integration and (re)segregation are not opposites.
Antioch is locally integrated, but regionally
segregated
Why not just talk of inequality, housing crises, etc.? The
answer is race.

1. How we talk about this
matters.

2. We need to recognize the new geography
of the Northern California, and not plan for
the region that was, or that might have been

3. This means transportation matters as
much as housing. So does higher
education.
Large scale spatial planning with a 21st
century progressive ethics?

4. Our number one collective priority
must be making more things possible

This means prioritizing politics,
not policy
![Page 18: Finding Common Purpose: Confronting Regional Alex Schafran … · 2019. 4. 15. · Confronting Regional Resegregation in the Bay Area Alex Schafran ... respecting fundamental limits](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081620/6109cff39fa2e5503a4371d7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
SB50 must be less divisive than SB 827.
More CASA-style politics (even that can get better).

UBI in Stockton. As much about the politics of innovation and reframing the
discourse around Stockton than whether the policy works. This makes sense.

How to meet the needs of
more people in California,
while at the same time
respecting fundamental limits
on our tax dollars and
natural resources is one of
the inexorable challenges we
face.
This Urban Strategy begins
to meet that challenge. It
gives focus to thousands of
individual decisions which
will affect California' s cities
and suburbs by directing
state and local governments
toward a common purpose:
the revitalization of
existing cities and the
sound management of new
urban development.
6. Sacramento, anyone?

A human settlements strategy?
A green new fiscal deal?
