January 2023 marks the 50th anniversary of the Roe v Wade ruling, just a year after this landmark legislation was overturned by the Supreme Court. In recognition of this historic event, and in response to the damaging repercussions of the recent Dobbs decision, the Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation is convening the panel discussion, “Where Are We Now: 50 Years After Roe.“
Presented by ArchiteXX and hosted by New York’s Center for Architecture on Monday, January 23rd at 6:00 p.m., the event opens a conversation on how the watershed ruling had far-reaching effects on women across the country and in all walks of life — and the significant harm created by its undoing. Asking, “Where do we stand 50 years later?” the esteemed panel includes Syracuse University’s noted expert Lori Brown FAIA and Cynthia Phifer Kracauer AIA, executive director of Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation (BWAF), a group dedicated to advancing women in architecture and allied professions.
