NACIS Racial Covenants in the Twin Cities

WTDN at the North American Cartographic Information Society 2022 Meeting

Racial covenant maps from Ramsey and Hennepin Counties were featured at the North American Cartographic Information Society (NACIS) 2022 Meeting. Kristine West and Rachel Neiwert from Welcoming the Dear Neighbor? presented alongside Jake Ford and Emily Cavazos from the Mapping Prejudice Project on October 21, 2022. The speakers presented the novel maps of racial covenants in Ramsey and Hennepin Counties and discussed the continued commitment of Welcoming the Dear Neighbor? and Mapping Prejudice to continue to map racial covenants and support communities in understanding how racial covenants affected their neighborhoods.
