  • The Rebirth of America's Urban Neighborhoods
    House by House, Block by Block: The Rebirth of America’s Urban Neighborhoods ALEXANDER VON HOFFMAN OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS BOSTON AND THE POWER OF COLLABORATION In 1971, Bob Haas, a twenty-seven-year-old engineer and classical piano player, moved to a commune in a large broken-down Victorian house in a section of the Boston Dorchester district known as Upham's Corner. Haas loved the his­ tory and vitality of Dorchester—a streetcar-era place where first the Irish and then other ethnic groups had made their home in “Baahston”—and a few years later bought the old house from his roommates. Upham's Corner, however, was a neighborhood in crisis. M any poor Afri­ can Americans and Puerto Ricans lived there. Houses caught on fire and were abandoned. Stores, including the neighborhood supermarket, closed. During his first ten years in Upham's Corner, Haas's house was burglarized twenty- three times. Children on his street grew up, joined gangs, took crack cocaine, and murdered or were murdered. At first Haas naively thought that if he repaired his house, others would do the same, and the neighborhood would come back. When that did not work, he organized a neighborhood association. That did not stem the tide either, and in 1979 he and members of three neighborhood associations founded the Dorchester Bay Economic Development Corporation (Dorchester Bay EDC). Excited by its potential, Haas in 1985 gave up his other careers to become a full-time staff member and spent sixteen years as director of planning. It took a few years, but this last effort began to show tangible results.

Lewis Latimer was born in Chelsea in 1848 to George and Rebecca Latimer, fugitive slaves who had escaped to Boston. When their owner from Virginia arrived to take them back, Boston abolitionists, including Frederick Douglass, raised funds to purchase their freedom. Their son, Lewis, began his career as a low-level draftsman, eventually working for Alexander Graham Bell and playing a major role in the invention of the telephone. And, while Thomas Edison is credited with inventing the light bulb, it was Lewis Latimer who patented the carbon filament and threaded socket, enabling the light bulb’s mass production and widespread use. This year, the carbon filament light bulb is being phased out in favor of more energy- efficient light bulbs.

  • Healthy Communities: Exploring the Intersection of Community Development and Health
    Healthy Communities: Exploring the Intersection of Community Development and Health Conference Materials Agenda Speaker Biographies Attendance List Federal Reserve Board of Governors Martin Building / July 13, 2010 Washington, DC Healthy Communities Conference - The Federal Reserve Board of Governors, Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, and the Robert Wood Johnson (RWJ) Foundation are co-hosting this conference to explore how the health and community development sectors can collaborate to promote better health outcomes for low-income people and communities by addressing issues concerning the social determinants on health. The conference will cover the following topics: New Resources. As traditional health funders begin to understand the strong integration between health outcomes and physical environments, there are many new potential partnerships between health-oriented foundations (Robert Wood Johnson, Kaiser Family Foundation, The California Endowment, and others in the Grantmakers In Health group) and new government programs (Healthy Foods Financing Initiative, anti-childhood obesity programs like Let’s Move!, charter school financing, early care programs). Harmonizing these new funding streams with the traditional community development programs (investment and lending motivated by the Community Reinvestment Act, New Markets Tax Credits, Low Income Housing Tax Credits, etc) will be both a challenge and an opportunity. Innovating new directions with existing funds will be equally challenging, requiring creative energy from both fields. New Partners. The important work of the housing and community development sector could be much more effective when joined with other partners (e.g., early care and education programs, nutrition programs, and the like). To do this requires sharing of knowledge between many sectors, with health and community development being the most immediately promising.

  • The Rappaport Center for Law and Public Policy
    2016–2017 Annual Report The Rappaport Center for Law and Public Policy Rappaport Distinguished Visiting Professor Martin O’Malley presenting to students and faculty The Rappaport Center for Law and Public Policy at Boston College Law School was established through a gift from the Phyllis & Jerome Lyle Rappaport Foundation. The Center educates, supports, mentors, and inspires gifted law students interested in government and public policy, and convenes local, state, and national thought leaders to engage in robust discourse on relevant issues affecting government. Message from the Dean Vincent D. Rougeau I am pleased to report on a very exciting second year for the Rappaport Center for Law and Public Policy at Boston College Law School. Through the generosity of the Phyllis & Jerome Lyle Rappaport Foundation, the Center became a part of BC Law School in 2015. The Center’s vision—to galvanize students, policy makers and thought leaders through dynamic programming that addresses important issues of law and public policy—was brought to life during our first year through the leadership of Faculty Director R. Michael Cassidy and Executive Director Vincent D. Rougeau Elisabeth J. Medvedow. Building upon this very successful foundation, our second year was marked by a number of dynamic conferences and programs on critical topics facing our democracy: race and policing, criminal justice reform, wealth inequality, state cooperation with immigration enforcement, and lifting the charter school cap in Massachusetts, among others. We also welcomed our first Rappaport Distinguished Visiting Professor, former Maryland Governor, former Mayor of Baltimore and recent presidential candidate Martin O’Malley. The Rappaport Fellows Program, a cornerstone of the Center that fosters the next generation of public policy leaders, continued to attract talented and dedicated students from seven Greater Boston-area law schools.

In the last half of the 20th century, there was gloom about urban life and many cities were projected to decline and decay. Many did so but Boston and other cities blossomed, becoming models of urban renaissance. Using Boston as a case study of the experience of American cities, this course considers key issues of economic change, technology, neighborhood inequality, political governance, elite relations, cultural institutions, crime, race and ethnic relations, immigration, gentrification and suburbanization. COURSE OVERVIEW AND GOALS In the 1970’s, Boston was marred by racial violence and its economy was rapidly collapsing. It was claimed at the time that Boston, like many other American cities, was dying. How did Boston instead reinvent itself and become one of America’s most successful and vibrant cities in the 21st century? Boston, again like many
