Promise & Peril: Geography of California

UC Berkeley Art Museum Pacific Film Archive

Curated by UC Berkeley students, Lands of Promise and Peril: Geographies of California explores the material places and social spaces that have created prosperity and inequality in the state. It focuses on the experiences of ordinary people, while considering how broader forces--environmental degradation and preservation, urban expansion and segregation, and cultural oppression and activism--shape opportunities and injustices in everyday life.
