A look back on 2023: In this most-viewed story of 2023, we look at Denver & Baltimore—2 cities with distinct histories & challenges that have 1 key similarity: the descendants of people harmed by redlining in the 1930s don’t live in the same places today.

It feels really good write with pen and paper, to allow words to just flow without thinking about it too much, literally only focusing on my why. So thank you, @crjackson54, for helping me get unstuck!

At lunch, @crjackson54 talked about how the writing process looks different for everyone and needing to reconnect with our why. Tonight I was inspired, took the message to heart, and hand wrote 6 pages for my dissertation proposal about why I chose my case, migraine.

You'll love this latest episode with @JustinKadi about Vienna's social housing and its 'remarkable stability' over 100+ years. We've been hoping to add some clarity about how European social housing *really* works, and we did that here. Check it out: lewis.ucla.edu/2023/01/25/42…
