“Part of the solution is more Black people, more people of color, owning their own planning firms.
We do have people of color who are at management levels

at Equitable Cities and creator of the Arrested Mobility Podcast.
Brown said the American Planning Association could
provide training, networking and resources to develop people of color on a path
to upper management or creating their own firm.
