*Virtual* Urban Research Seminar : Chocolate Cities: The Black Map of American Life

The NYU Urban Initiative presents Marcus Anthony Hunter in a line up of eminent international scholars for the multidisciplinary Urban Research Seminar. Most seminars are held on the second floor of the Puck Building on Wednesdays from 12:00 to 1:30 pm, with complementary lunch. This event series is open to the greater NYU community in an effort to integrate NYU's faculty and students with a keen interest in cities.

He is author of three books; Black Citymakers: How The Philadelphia Negro Changed Urban America (Oxford University Press, 2013), Chocolate Cities: The Black Map of American Life (University of California Press, 2018) coauthored with Zandria F. Robinson, and The New Black Sociologists (Routledge, 2018).
