The spotlight interview editors decided not to publish
Urbanist Platform helps “you shape your local area; sharing informative content and connecting you with industry roles”, with the aim to “make the built environment more inclusive”.
I was virtually interviewed by one of Urbanist Platform’s award-winning built environment professionals in April 2021 for a piece that, for reasons not communicated to me, remained unpublished. Hazard a guess.
Of course, “inclusion” is co-opted and gatekept. It exists to maintain an illusion of accountability primarily for the appeasement of the propagandized masses, in order to sustain reliable profits from systemic violence and oppression. Bonus points for non-white gatekeepers living in the beating heart of Empire.
I found the article again recently and thought it illuminating to spend time with my past self, toying with the nonsense concept of “The Urbanist” — or even “The Sustainability Strategist”.
For fun, here is that piece.
