Samira Damiscar will prepare a presentation about the history of black people in Landscape Architecture, Ivy Henderson will describe her experiences with working with historic African American communities through her work with the City of Jacksonville, and Alexandria Viala will describe her experience as a black woman in a leadership position in our industry.
