Speaker examines census snafu
Wednesday, March 16, 2022 by Tai Moses
If you’ve been following the news, you’ve already heard there were some problems with the 2020 U.S. Census – chiefly, that the once-every-decade head count of the nation’s populace undercounted Black, Latino and Native American populations. That makes the latest installment of the Imagine Austin speaker series quite timely. Lila Valencia, the city of Austin’s demographer, will examine the takeaways, demographic trends and social equity concerns of the 2020 census as they relate to Central Texas. Thursday, April 14, 5-6:15 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. Register here for the webinar.
