ReThinking the City (live event) 
Tuesday July 28, 6:30-8:00pm
Juice Bike Share offices, 515 W. Central Blvd, Orlando (MAP)

Urban researcher Yuri Gama discusses his thesis project exploring the impact of highway construction on Orlando’s African-American community. Weaving together an examination of history and culture linked to postwar policy in the United States, A World Torn Asunder highlights the impact of race and class on the transformation of Orlando’s Parramore neighborhood.

ReThinking the City (Facebook) will meet at Juice Bike Share HQ this month, located at 515 W. Central Blvd, near the intersection of Central and Division. Parking is available for 7 cars in the Juice parking lot. Paid parking is available across the street, at $1/hr. The Grapefruit LYMMO line and Lynx Route 21 both have stops within 100 ft. of our new location. Juice HQ is also a bike share hub! Personal bikes can be parked inside the building.

Rethinking the City (RTC) is dedicated to building a dialogue within our community and with changemakers around the world about the forces that shape cities and how we can participate in positive change in our own city through arts, engagement, service, and enterprise.

RTC hosts a monthly symposium and produces a radio program dedicated to promoting and understanding the contemporary dialogue around community change. The RTC Symposium is the last Tuesday of every month and features local, national and international changemakers sharing insights and actions. 

RTC radio airs every Monday afternoon at 4:00pm on WPRK radio 91.5FM in Orlando, Florida.
