Attention #UrbanismBookClub lovers! My friend @jaypitter.bsky.social’s really important new book “Black Public Joy” is out there for purchasing! Congratulations Jay! I encourage everyone seeing this to check the book out and help spread the word. It frankly couldn’t be more timely. #BlackPublicJoy

{2026 New Release} Black Public Joy : No Permit or Permission Required by: Jay Pitter From one of North America’s most influential public space experts comes a powerful treatise celebrating Black people’s audacious, complex, and universally embraced public joy expressions. How much safety, belonging and delight do you feel when you walk through a park? Hang out in a coffee shop? Ride the subway to work? Explore a new neighbourhood? Now, how much do you know about how history, urban planning, culture and even your personal upbringing impact those feelings, and overall access, to public joy?

Happy Pub Week to Jay Pitter! #newrelease #JayPitter #BlackPublicJoy @jay_pitter
