Abstract
"To Resurrect a Community" is an essay which provides a detailed portrait of harmful urban renewal in College Park's Lakeland district. Taking two major lines of inquiry - theory surrounding infrastructural oppression of minority communities throughout the nation and history/context for the renewal which occurred and Lakeland - I present arguments for confronting past racist renewal and preventing it in the future.
