About
Kaycie’s research examines the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) as a social and environmental engineering project from 1932-1942. Her project uncovers underrepresented groups contributions in the CCC the program’s operation. She frames the CCC as a development project, like that of colonial regimes in the Global South, to centralize non-white enrollees’ contributions to transforming the nation’s environments in places such as New York, Georgia, the Navajo Reservation and Puerto Rico.
