As many of you know, VOICE has been focusing our attention lately on urban design and its effects on social mobility and equal opportunity. Specifically, we have been discussing how the proposed beltway around Omaha will not only impact transportation within our city, but also social mobility and equal opportunities for areas of our community that are already hurting, like North Omaha. This recent article in the Omaha World Herald outlines the complicated issues surrounding this area of our city and, most importantly, how you can get involved to help eliminate the epidemic poverty and violence in our community.
