Panel Discussion on Redistricting in Vermont, Hosted by The Department of Geography

As Vermont only has one congressional district, this panel will speak to the various scales at which the redistricting process happens. Panel will speak about redistricting and gerrymandering at the federal level (by contextualizing Vermont within neighboring Massachusetts, New York, and Pennsylvania), as well as spark a conversation about school district and statehouse redistricting (with a more localized, Vermont specific focus). 

In an arresting new documentary from the producers of “Racing Extinction,” “The Cove,” and “Chasing the Ice,” environmental photographer James Balog captures the lives of everyday Americans on the front lines of climate change. With rare compassion and heart, “The Human Element” inspires us to reevaluate our relationship with the natural world. For more information, visit https://thehumanelementmovie.com/.
