Wendy: The Minnesota Block Exercise, part of The Corridor Housing
(or Development) Initiative, is one of the most powerful community
engagement processes I have ever seen. I had an insight about
embodiment at the table where I was observing in Minneapolis in
2006. There were three participants: a white woman, a white man in
a suit who looked and acted like a businessman and a well-dressed
but informally dressed African–American man. The white man was
oldest, then the African–American man and then the white woman.
