Tour | Tour of Gracie Mansion, Home of New York's Mayors
In 1799, a prosperous New York merchant named Archibald Gracie built a country house overlooking a bend in the East River, five miles north of the then-New York City limits. Little did he know that, more than 200 years later, his home would be serving as the official residence of the First Family of New York City - a place where history is made, not merely recorded. As a historic house museum run by the Parks Department, sitting on 11 acres of grounds now known as Carl Schurz Park, Gracie Mansion has served as the home of 10 mayors, beginning first with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942. Today, Gracie Mansion is occupied by the de Blasio family, which has opened its doors in the spirit of the administration's motto: one city, rising together. In keeping with that theme, Mayor de Blasio and First Lady Chirlane McCray have introduced a new art installation, titled “Windows on the City: Looking Out at Gracie’s New York.” This tour repeats every Monday.

Author Reading | Ranking: The Unwritten Rules of the Social Game We All Play
Human beings are competitive. We like to see who is stronger, richer, better, more clever. Since humans (1) love lists, (2) are competitive, and (3) are jealous of other people, we like ranking. Ranking reflects the reality, illusion, and manipulation of objectivity. Peter Erdi's book is for people who have a neighbor with a fancier car; employees, who are being ranked by their supervisors; managers, who are involved in ranking but may have qualms about the process; businesspeople interested in creating better visibility for their companies; scientists, writers, artists, and other competitors who would like to see themselves at the top of a success list; or college students who are just preparing to enter a new phase of social competition.

Lecture | Social Theory, Race, and the Episteme of Empire
This talk explores racialized epistemic exclusions and inequality in social theory, and sociology more broadly, through a history of the present that connects founding assumptions of early sociology to present-day exclusions. It shows that sociology’s initial emergence within the context of empire means that early sociological thought embedded empire’s own structure into some of its logical forms and disciplinary warrants. Speaker Julian Go is Professor of Sociology at Boston University.

Author Reading | Race for Profit: How Banks and the Real Estate Industry Undermined Black Homeownership
Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor uncovers how the supposed end of housing discrimination in the late 1960s and early 1970s belies the continuation of exploitative real estate practices and a disastrous new phenomenon known as predatory inclusion. By the end of the 1970s, the U.S.’s first programs to encourage black homeownership ended with tens of thousands of foreclosures in black communities across the country. Taylor speaks on the sea change in housing policy, its dire impact on African Americans, and how the urban core was transformed into a new frontier of cynical extraction.

Author Reading | This Brilliant Darkness: A Book of Strangers
Known for immersion journalism that is more immersed than most people are willing to go, and for a prose style that is somehow both fierce and soulful, Jeff Sharlet dives deep into the darkness around us and awaiting us. This work began when his father had a heart attack; two years later, Jeff, still in his forties, had a heart attack of his own. In the grip of writerly self-doubt, Jeff turned to images, taking snapshots and posting them on Instagram, writing short, true stories that bloomed into documentary.
