Waterfronts: Cities, Shipping, and the Sea

Brooklyn Institute for Social Research @ 68 Jay St, Brooklyn, NY

Does every “great” city possess a waterfront? Historical hubs of trade, waterfronts inculcate cultures that structure and permeate modern urban space—cultures of capital, labor, leisure, sex, and, in a de-industrial age, decay.

Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this lecture class:

Join us for an engaging conversation about the potential of all generations to create social change with Encore.org President and CEO, Marc Freedman. His new book, How to Live Forever: The Enduring Power of Connecting the Generations is a deeply personal call to find fulfillment and happiness in our longer lives by connecting with the next generation and forging a legacy of love that lives beyond us.

Marc will be interviewed by CEO of Be Social Change, Marcos Salazar, and the two will discuss some of contemporary life’s most urgent questions: With so many living so much longer, what is the meaning of the increasing years beyond 50? How can a society with more older people than younger ones thrive? How do we find happiness when we know life is long and time is short?

Books will be available for purchase.

What You’ll Learn
  • The role each one of us plays in fostering happier, healthier, more productive lives for older and younger generations alike
  • The ways in which we can change the conversation about long lives and how communities all over the world are working to maximize the human capital of all people
  • How we can build an inspiring and timely manifesto for a better future by connecting people of different generations
  • Why and how the members of generations are tremendous untapped resources for each other
