On this episode I speak with Kea Wilson, Senior Editor for Streetsblog USA, which is a daily newsblog that covers the movement to end car dependence in the United States. Besides their national site, they also have dedicated sites for San Francisco, New York, LA and more cities.
Kea is also the host of the great podcast The Brake, who’s topics have included How Mayor’s are Fighting Back Against Harmful Highways and How Cities are Getting Creative to Reclaim Public Space. She is also a novelist, cyclist, and affordable housing advocate.
We talk about what President-elect Trump’s pick to run the Department of Transportation – Sean Duffy – may look like; and about what else she’s hearing from transportation advocates through her reporting.
