Join us for a thought-provoking conversation with Yoni Appelbaum, Deputy Executive Editor at The Atlantic and author of Stuck: How the Privileged and the Propertied Broke the Engine of American Opportunity. Appelbaum explores how moving in search of opportunity—once central to American life—has become increasingly out of reach for working-class families. Today, many people are no longer moving to where jobs are growing, but to where housing is simply affordable, as housing policy has turned homes into scarce investments. We’ll discuss how mobility, housing, and opportunity are playing out locally in Albuquerque, and potential paths forward.

Childcare and interpretation will be provided. When reserving your ticket, please indicate if you need childcare or interpretation. This is a free, ticketed event that we anticipate will sell out, so we encourage you to get your ticket today!
