“The massing of voices protesting racial discrimination have roused this nation to the need to rectify racial and other social injustices.”
Davidoff, 1965

“We shall seek social justice by working to expand choice and opportunity for all persons, recognizing a special responsibility to plan for the needs of the disadvantaged and to promote racial and economic integration. We shall urge the alteration of policies, institutions, and decisions that oppose such needs.”
AICP Ethics Principle A1F

Planning is a pursuit of distributive justice,
concerned with equal choice/opportunity (e.g.
equality).
“We shall seek social justice by working to expand choice and opportunity…”
![Page 6: Advocacy, our ethical obligation APA Virginia 2015 Conference Garet Prior Senior Planner, Town of Ashland gprior@town.ashland.va.us (804) 798-1073.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022032709/56649eda5503460f94bea41d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
In calling out a “special responsibility” for
certain groups (racially and economically
disadvantaged), we take on an equity role that
pushes us to give weighted or “special”
effort.
“…Recognizing a special responsibility to plan for the needs of the disadvantaged and to promote racial and economic integration…”
![Page 7: Advocacy, our ethical obligation APA Virginia 2015 Conference Garet Prior Senior Planner, Town of Ashland gprior@town.ashland.va.us (804) 798-1073.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022032709/56649eda5503460f94bea41d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Finally, in “urging” alteration or change, history tells us
that advocacy - more than an urge - will be required to
achieve our desired outcomes.
…We shall urge the alteration of policies, institutions, and decisions that oppose such needs.”
