Keynote: Dr. Matthew Desmond

MacArthur Genius and Princeton sociologist Matthew Desmond is the author of The New York Times bestseller and 2017 Pulitzer Prize winner Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City. Praised as “an extraordinary feat of reporting and ethnography” by The Washington Post, Evicted transforms our understanding of extreme poverty and economic exploitation while providing fresh ideas for solving a uniquely American problem.

Desmond is the Maurice P. During Professor of Sociology, and launched the Eviction Lab at Princeton University in 2017 after conversations with renters and policymakers convinced him that collecting national data on eviction would help answer fundamental questions about residential instability, forced moves, and poverty in America. In 2018, the Eviction Lab published the first-ever dataset of millions of evictions in America dating back to 2000.   ​
