Join Nicholas Freudenberg, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Public Health at CUNY and author of Fighting for New York: Activism for Health and Social Justice Since the 1960s, for a conversation on the movements that have shaped New York City over the last six decades. Drawing on stories from campaigns for housing justice, labor rights, environmental justice, public health, reproductive freedom, and criminal justice reform, Freudenberg explores how grassroots organizers have transformed the city and what today's activists can learn from their successes and setbacks. The discussion will examine the connections between health, housing, wages, food access, policing, and climate justice, offering practical lessons for anyone interested in building a more equitable New York.
