Why we need more black voices in architecture | Dr. Hazel Edwards | TEDxPearlStreet
Architecture reflects and frames the purpose of our lives. It weaves the tapestry of our lived experiences, connecting us to other people through buildings, neighborhoods, and infrastructure; it helps us to navigate the places where we live, love, learn, work, play, shop, worship and invest in our future. Dr. Hazel Edwards invites you to reconsider how the built world is a part of our humanity. In a diverse and inclusive society, we also need buildings that were created by a variety of architects. Dr. Edwards shows us how increasing the diversity of architects and designers of the human environment and including varied voices in the process will ultimately benefit us all. Dr. Hazel Ruth Edwards, professor and former chair of Howard University’s Department of Architecture of the College of Engineering and Architecture, was the first female department chair since 1911. Her training in architecture, urban design and city planning enables multidisciplinary approaches to complex urban challenges. She’s nurtured a new generation of professionals who express the built environment in a broad spectrum of cultural values, thereby increasing diverse voices in the planning and design fields. In 2021, President Biden appointed her to the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts where she is the first African American woman to serve as Vice Chair. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
