Hindsight 2021: Re-emergence Re-Imagined
As we slowly emerge from a global pandemic, 2021 continues to challenge us to balance the duality of gratitude and grief in the world. Despite greater hope inspired by community mutual aid and resourcefulness, new leadership, as well as reopening, it has become undeniable that the experiences of oppressed peoples around the world are interconnected and rooted in white supremacy and racial capitalism. In this fifth and final year of Hindsight,™ merging with the APA New York Metro Chapter Annual Conference, let us create space to re-imagine what an equitable future truly for us and by us looks like, to guide our re-emergence. We call on planners and policy makers to shatter the failed systems that perpetuate racism and ableism, and, together with communities, build the foundation necessary for us to collectively thrive. Like a seedling emerging, let us root into the resistance and solidarity of our ancestors and manifest a future of our wildest dreams–where the impossible is possible.
The two day, virtual event will take place from November 4-5, 2021. Hindsight will focus on diversity and social equity not solely as a topic at a conference, but as a lens through which all planning and community development should be implemented.

Hindsight is proud to be partnering with CRUX again for the 2021 conference!
Crux is the only cooperative of Black artists working in digital spaces, including AR & VR. Their mission is to build a digital, immersive storytelling movement that lifts Black artists up rather than growing on the backs of their brilliance. Their core values are rooted in liberation theology and are a counter-narrative to traditional ways of building a revenue driven business. They are human first community builders who lead with trust, believing in shared leadership, joy, abundance, and move slowly and thoughtfully as they grow. Learn more about them.
