The Harvard Graduate School of Design’s Loeb Fellowship has announced its Class of 2022. The ten individuals were selected from a group of 134 candidates, and work across fields including activism, urbanism, public art, film and media, technology, and real estate development. The 2021-2022 cycle, the 51st in the Loeb Fellowship’s history, will also see an inaugural collaborative fellowship between the Loeb Fellowship and the ArtLab at Harvard University.
The ten incoming Loeb Fellows are:
"The Class of 2022 exemplifies our commitment to some of the most urgent social issues of both the current moment and our collective history, among them racial justice, environmental and spatial equity, the societal impacts of technology, inclusive cultural preservation, and activism,” said Loeb Fellowship Curator John Peterson. “In addition to their year of independent study, we look forward to amplifying the voices and issues that this cohort of Loeb Fellows brings to Harvard and the GSD community, through our events and public programming as well as active engagement with students and faculty.”
The Fellowship includes a one-year residency on the GSD’s campus, where Fellows engage in research, courses, and workshops on both the Harvard and MIT campuses, as well as participating in panels and conferences to further knowledge-sharing and expand their work through social engagement.
In addition to being selected as a Loeb Fellow, Jordan Weber has also been awarded the inaugural joint Loeb/ArtLab Fellowship, aiming to enrich the fellowship experience with studio space at the Harvard ArtLab. “The Loeb Fellowship's commitment to interdisciplinary research and experimentation, and to improving social outcomes, intersects harmoniously with the ArtLab's vision and mission, and we look forward to the important work and conversations that we hope this collaborative fellowship will inspire,” said ArtLab’s Director Bree Edwards.

racial justice and equity, but without Asians, Hispanics or Latin Americans … ok.
india/south east doesn't fit your narrow definition of asian? fuck off.
It’s incorrect and lazy to call Indians asian or middle eastern, you never hear that because Indians call themselves Indian. Congrats to the winners, but projecting American race issues on a global competition is absurd. This isn’t diverse on either a US or Global scale.

I thought quotas were bad.
Chemex, you forgot to say first, bigot.
What passes for intelligent criticism by this amateur is really basic racist bomb throwing. All you need to do, you fucking troll, is to to the Loeb site, and do the basic research; search the past fellows, search for country, and voilá...
Here, chump, I'll help.

Argentina?
Is China in Asia?
How about Vietnam?
Maybe the Dominican Republic?
You are the epitome of lazy, and likely vvhyte, because everyone else needs to do your homework for you. Or, maybe it's like Occam's Razor, and you're just a racist troll.
