The Roots Of The Cali Fire Crisis (And A Defense Of LA)

Ravi welcomes M. Nolan Gray, city planner and housing expert, to discuss his insightful Atlantic piece, “How Well-Intentioned Policies Fueled L.A.’s Fires.” They dive into the Los Angeles fires, the media narratives surrounding the crisis, and the politicized responses. Ravi and Nolan examine how certain housing policies exacerbated the disaster and explore the challenges posed by insurance, land use, and urban development in California—while also highlighting reasons to remain optimistic about Los Angeles’ future.
