(my major is Architecture)
as a profession, you are not a profession that has distinguished itself by your social and civic contributions to the cause of civil rights, and I am sure this has not come to you as any shock. You are most distinguished by your thunderous silence and your complete irrelevance.
That ferocious quote is from Whitney Young’s speech to the AIA in 1968. Read the speech, and the AIA’s contextualizing of it in 2018, and then write 300 hundred words on how you see the profession is/is not distinguishing itself in social and civic issues today. You can use a single architecture firm or building/ project as a case study, draw from experience, and/or use data.
