Proud to have played a role in creating these commitments. I hope they are useful to those interested in working with Tribal Nations and for Tribal Nation staff when developing research agreements with non-Tribal universities and research organizations.

I’m 36 today. Here’s a little of what 35 looked like. Thanks to the friends and colleagues who supported me along the way this transformative and challenging year.

“Heat is a hyper-local impact. It imperils people really differently on a neighborhood-by-neighborhood, and sometimes block-by-block, level,” says Cawley. “People who are impacted ought to have a pretty big say in how this is mitigated and dealt with.”

Extreme heat will kill millions of people in Europe without rapid action Nature - Climate models predict that the number of heat-related deaths could soar in cities over the coming century, even when efforts are made to keep people safe.

( of 300ish buildings in Hayti - urban renewal in the 1950/60s destroyed all but one for a highway. today it is the Hayti Heritage Center. HHC celebrates its 50th anniversary this year - i’m on the planning committee for the celebration. learn more and consider donating here: youtu.be/AJRHt6yQ-Dk )

tl;dr - making good decisions about tomorrow requires good data, and it requires good imaginations.

the world that children today will inherit is one shaped by our decisions. we owe it to them to dream and imagine as wildly as they are now about what’s possible. if something seems impossible, maybe it’s because a system in place today makes it so. what if it doesn’t need to be that way?

11.12.2024 11:24 — 👍 0    🔁 0    💬 1    📌 0

our perceptions of what’s possible for a world of tomorrow are shaped in large part by the idea that our systems are rigid and immovable, but often forget that the world we live in today was shaped by decisions made by people in the past - decisions like those that reshaped Hayti.

satellite images and mathematical models tell us only some of what we know about the future. what systems today seem invincible to us that may need rethinking (or indeed overturning) that data can’t or doesn’t capture? these are questions better left to imagination.

eg - the Hayti District of Durham - pictured here pre-urban renewal, present day, and in future in the imagination of a resident. Priorities and perceptions of what the future ought to look like are informed in part by data like the first two images, but they tell only part of a larger story.

I’m convening a poster session this afternoon at #agu24 on imagination, I hope you’ll stop by. We posit that data and memory are two sides of the same coin - both accurate but incomplete pictures of reality. We typically privilege the former over the latter - to our own detriment.
