The Data and Racial Inequality Project
EVERYDAY MOBILITY AND MOVEMENT SEGREGATION
This project seeks to understand racial segregation based on not where people live but where they move about the city. Using newly-available data on people’s daily travel to establishments and neighborhoods across cities, it examines separation, isolation, and integration.
