Highways To Displacement: The Hidden History Of Urban Renewal
Manage episode 492913627 series 2289832

In Detroit and beyond, entire Black neighborhoods were destroyed, and communities were split by concrete. We uncover the deeper implications of transportation policy in the mid 1900’s and how cities today are trying to get back to these once-connected and diverse communities.
