CRC Sep 2024 “Religion, Cities and Infrastructure” Webinar
Date & Time: Sep 26 at 11am-1pm EST
Panelists: Michelle Bostic, Rebecca Potts, Lisa Beyeler-Yvarra
Moderator: Harold D. Morales
In 2022, the Center for Religion and Cities received a generous grant from the Henry Luce Foundation to explore the health of social/organizational infrastructures. This webinar considers religion as an infrastructural project. Infrastructures constitute the media that organize everyday life and the physical objects and technologies that make up our world. The participants in this panel discuss the various ways religions materialize as the nebulous architectures and formal networks that create urban landscapes and are created, in turn, by the spaces they inhabit.
