Their involvement provided important insights into the process and challenges involved in the delivery of immediate disaster relief and long-term assistance. Special thanks are also due to the many 9/11 relief funds that submitted detailed information to the Foundation Center regarding their grants and beneficiaries as well as their plans for distributing unspent funds. PHILANTHROPY’S RESPONSE TO 9/11 PROJECT The Foundation Center is documenting private philanthropy’s response to the September 11 terrorist attacks. Using our experience in collecting and analyzing giving data, we are constructing a comprehensive picture of giving by foundations and corporations in the aftermath of 9/11, as well as tracking contributions by intermediaries and direct-service providers. We are also presenting news and in-depth interviews concerning the philanthropic response to 9/11 in the Foundation Center’s online journal, Philanthropy News Digest. Some of these have been reproduced in September 11: Perspectives from the Field of Philanthropy. To access all of the Foundation Center’s 9/11-related reports and other resources, visit www.fdncenter.org/research/911.

The dissertation interrogates how modes of architectural production are operative parts of the same project that has historically, and continues to mutate, to produce varying ideas about racial difference. The dissertation works to discern how much of the state, stakeholders, and media’s desire to house hetero-normative familial structures in high-rise residential towers, is an outcome of ideology that regards the black familial order as dysfunctional, pathological improperly ordered, or poorly managed. Towards these ends, this work interrogates dwelling, taking into account the lives lived within these objects, attending to the politics, aesthetics, and materiality of the making of home.
