2021 Divided City Graduate Summer Research Fellows Program
2021-06-25 • Sam Fox School
Nathan Stanfield (BS18, MArch22) has been selected for the 2021 cohort of the Divided City Graduate Summer Research Fellows Program, which provides WashU graduate students in the Humanities, Humanistic Social Sciences, Architecture, Urban Design, and Landscape Architecture an opportunity to conduct research on urban segregation.
Stanfield’s research focuses on the histories and futures of water-based crises experienced by Native communities in the Twin Cities, St. Louis, and New Orleans regions. Through written and graphic media, he examines the effects of infrastructural and extractive interventions on Native land and water—considered both historically and currently—through flooding, infrastructural neglect and water supply contamination.
