This episode of STLPR's podcast “We Live Here” takes a deep dive on the history of the Veiled Prophet and explores how it's connected to the Ferguson uprising.

They brought the story of the Ferguson Uprising live to our computers and smartphones.

Their stories didn't end in 2014, though, as many of them continued to demonstrate for causes in the St. Louis area to the present or until their deaths.

The second episode of We Live Here: 10 Years After The Ferguson Uprising looks at the citizen journalist/activists that documented the protests.

John catches up with Bob Vylan and producer Jonny Breakwell to talk about how they wrote, recorded and produced the ‘Humble As The Sun'. Bob Vylan, a grime and punk rock duo who emerged in 2017. Despite facing resistance for their provocative themes on racism and inequality, they gained a loyal following. Their albums, 2020's ‘We Live Here' and 2022's ‘Bob Vylan Presents the Price of Life' earned critical acclaim, and saw the duo win Best Alternative Act at the MOBO Awards. Their latest, ‘Humble as the Sun,' sees the duo flex their musical muscles, drawing on soul, drill, and punk, brought together with their trademark intensity. Chatting in Miloco's The Pool Studio, where some of the album was recorded, the conversation includes insights into navigating the independent artist landscape and the pivotal moments balancing personal and musical life. The pair also reflect on the process of refining Bobby's initial demos into polished tracks, exploring the production techniques that enhance the depth and character of the band's sound.

Not only does New Jersey hold onto the blood, it can use the blood samples in any manner it chooses. When babies are born in New Jersey, state law requires that blood be taken from the newborns and tested for diseases such as cystic fibrosis, hormonal deficiencies, and other immunity issues. All states perform similar tests. But, after the testing is over, New Jersey’s Department of Health keeps the leftover blood for 23 years. The state does not ask parents for their consent to keep their babies’ blood, failing to even inform parents that it will hold on to the residual blood. The only way parents could learn about such retention is by proactively looking it up on one of the third-party websites listed on the bottom of the card they’re given after the blood draw. And, once the state has the blood, it can use it however it wishes, including selling it to third parties, giving it to police without a warrant, or even selling it to the Pentagon to create a registry—as previously happened in Texas. “Parents have a right to informed consent if the state wants to keep their children’s blood for decades and use it for purposes other than screening for diseases,” said IJ Senior Attorney Rob Frommer. “New Jersey’s policy of storing baby blood and DNA and using that genetic information however it wants is a clear violation of the Fourth Amendment rights of all New Jersey parents and their newborns.” The plaintiffs challenging this law are two Boonton parents, Erica and Jeremiah Jedynak, and Hannah Lovaglio, a Cranbury mother of two. “It’s not right that the state can enter an incredibly intimate moment, the tender days of childbirth, and take something from our children which is then held on to for 23 years,” said Hannah. “The lack of consent and transparency causes me to question the intent and makes me worried for my children’s future selves.” “As a mother, I deserve the right to decide whether or not the government takes blood from my son and holds onto it for decades past its claimed use.” Although all 50 states and the District of Columbia require blood screening for newborns, whether a state will destroy leftover newborn blood, return it, or keep it with a form of parental consent varies on a state-by-state basis. “What makes New Jersey’s program so uniquely disturbing is the complete lack of safeguards for future abuse and the lack of consent, which leave the program ripe for abuse,” said IJ Attorney Christie Hebert. “Parents should not have to worry if the state is going to use the blood it said it was taking from their baby to test for diseases for other, unrelated purposes.” New Jersey is not alone in facing legal issues for the lack of consent when obtaining blood and over what the state does with the blood. Texas, Minnesota, and Michigan have all faced lawsuits over their retention of blood samples without informed consent from the parents. The 2009 lawsuit in Texas resulted in the state destroying 5.3 million blood samples, and now, all blood samples obtained after 2012 must be destroyed after two years. A 2014 settlement in the Minnesota lawsuit resulted in 1.1 million blood samples being destroyed. In 2022, Michigan agreed to destroy 3 million blood spots, but that lawsuit continues to move forward. “It’s incredibly misleading for the state to tell parents they are simply drawing blood from their babies to test for diseases when it could be sold to third parties or used by other government agencies to build invasive databases or registries,” said IJ Attorney Brian Morris. “As Texas and other states have shown, these concerns aren’t hypothetical.” https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-xi-meeting-seal-deals-fentanyl-military-communications-white-house Biden-Xi meeting to seal deals on fentanyl, military communications, White House says Wednesday's meeting between President Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping will address hard issues such as fentanyl supplies coming in from Asia and a lack of military communication, the White House said. Fox News spoke with NSC Coordinator for the Indo-Pacific Kurt Campbell this week — Campbell was just recently nominated to become deputy secretary of state. "I can tell you that President Biden intends to make very clear to President Xi to get ready. He's going to be dealing with President Biden for the next five years," Campbell told Fox News Digital. "These are tough diplomatic encounters," he continued. "President Biden has a lot of experience. They've known each other a long time. This is an important meeting. It'll be intense." Biden and Xi shook hands in San Francisco Wednesday. One key talking point for the two world leaders is the ongoing fentanyl crisis in the United States. "The president tasked us several months ago to try to come up with some sort of progress on one of the most terrible things that is a blight on America, the fentanyl crisis," Campbell told Fox News Digital. "So we've worked over the course of several months with Chinese interlocutors demanding progress on cutting off support from precursors that are produced by Chinese companies and then shipped largely to Latin America. And then they make their way up into the United States." "We're going to have to see how it's implemented," Campbell continued. "But so far, we believe the Chinese are going to take consequential steps that will essentially help us get a handle on really one of the most terrible drug epidemics the United States has ever faced. There's a back and forth on this. If they, in fact, make these arrests and shut down these companies, then we will be lifting a few sanctions." Another major concern to be addressed between Biden and Xi is the trend of increasingly common incidents between the Chinese and U.S. military. Government officials have reported that communications between China and U.S. military commands has become difficult, with Chinese military leaders refusing to meaningfully converse with their U.S. counterparts. "We seek to establish responsible mechanisms that can deal with communications in a crisis to prevent escalation and inadvertence. And I believe that the Chinese will come around to see that some of this is also in their best interest as well," Campbell added. https://dailycaller.com/2023/11/14/national-education-association-teachers-union-strike/ Teacher’s Union That Encouraged Teacher Strikes Now Faces Its Own Employee Rebellion The National Education Association (NEA) has a labor strike on its hands as its 48 employees protest low wages, Axios reports. The NEA, which represents 3 million educators, has encouraged several massive teacher strikes in past. Now, its own employees have voted unanimously to strike, claiming that wages have not risen to meet surging inflation in recent years. Thousands of NEA-affiliated Portland teachers went on strike in October over low pay and large class sizes, among other issues. The strike is ongoing. Teachers in Massachusetts and Columbus enjoyed NEA support while they went on strike last year. “The NEA is going to have step up and honor the values of the organization,” the bargaining chair for the union representing the NEA’s staff, LaToya Johnson, said. Johnson said she hoped that the organization would give their employees the same benefits they fought for the teachers they represent to have. “NEA has engaged in negotiations in good faith,” an NEA spokesperson told Axios. “[A]nd continues to apply a solutions-based approach to resolve the outstanding issues in a manner that addresses articulated priorities of AFSE while also balancing the strategic priorities of NEA and its members.” The NEA, along with the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), collaborated with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to decide on when and how in-person education would be allows after the COVID-19 pandemic, according to emails obtained by Americans for Public Trust. https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2023/11/13/as-the-marvels-bombs-disney-doubles-down-on-pushing-lgbtq-streaming-shows/ As ‘The Marvels’ Bombs, Disney Doubles Down on Pushing LGBTQ Streaming Shows The Walt Disney Company is rolling out more LGBTQ content as its latest superhero movie The Marvels crashed and burned at the box office on its opening weekend. The Disney+ drama series Culprits focuses on a gay domestic relationship between two men played by Nathan Stewart-Jarrett and Kevin Vidal. The show focuses on Joe (Stewart-Jarrett), whose past criminal life threatens to re-emerge and disrupt the quiet suburban existence he has built with his male fiancé Jules (Vidal) The series — which is streaming on Disney+ in the U.K. and Hulu in the U.S. — also stars drag queen comedian Eddie Izzard, who now apparently goes by the name “Suzy Eddie Izzard.” In December, Hulu is set to debut the new documentary We Live Here in the Midwest — a look at gay, transgender, and “non-binary” families that live in small towns and cities throughout America’s heartland. Among the families profiled in the documentary are those with transgender parents. “What my dad was feeling and why she felt like she did, was more than just her. There are more people out there who are like this,” said one child whose father transitioned to become a “woman.” In another scene, a “non-binary” student discussed how she is treated in class. “The students believe that ‘non-binary’ do not exist,” she said. “I’m here right now so we do exist.” We Live Here in the Midwest is set to debut on December 6. Disney has embraced LGBTQ messaging in its entertainment aimed at children and families. As Breitbart News reported, Disney along with Netflix put out more LGBTQ content than any other studio in Hollywood in 2022, according to a GLAAD report. GLAAD said Disney released 59 films in 2022, and 24 of them were so-called “LGBT inclusive films.” In the past two years, Disney has fought Florida over its anti-grooming Parental Rights in Education law, created multiple transgender characters for its children’s shows, put gay characters at the center of its big-budget movies, and even launched an LGBTQ-themed apparel line. This year, Disney eliminated 7,000 jobs worldwide as its profitability cratered. CEO Bob Iger is planning on slashing an additional $2 billion in spending in the months ahead.

"We Live Here Auténtico!” is an outgrowth of two separate podcasts: "We Live Here" and "Auténtico!" Co-hosts Gabriela Ramirez-Arellano and Alejandro Santiago joined the show.

The Shades of the City podcast focuses on telling the stories of the people. From the south and west sides to the suburbs, this podcast will highlight the stories of those changemakers, educators, and historians who are fighting for change, providing resources for their communities and preserving the history of their beloved home, Chicago.  In our first episode, Lauren sits down with viral Tik Tok Chicago historian Shermann "Dilla" Thomas in his Auburn Gresham home to talk about his love for Chicago history and how he is educating the next generation. Coming up next on Shades of the City Lauren speaks with two former editors of the iconic Ebony and JET magazines about the history of Johnson Publishing Company and how influential it was on the current landscape of Black media.  Lauren Brown is a native of the south suburbs of Chicago. She graduated from the University of Missouri where she studied Journalism and Social Justice. Previously, she worked as the co-host and producer for the We Live Here podcast based out of St. Louis Public Radio and PRX. In 2020 she won a National Edward R Murrow award for her work with American Public Media on the Black at Mizzou: Confronting Race on Campus Documentary. In late 2021 she became the newest podcast and multimedia producer for WBBM Newsradio in Chicago and she is excited about bringing diverse stories to the city she knows and loves. 

One of the approaches we are taking this season is partnering with a St. Louis NPR podcast “We Live Here,” […]

Czternasty odcinek Podcastu Prowincjonalnego to opowieść o tym, jak na prowincji podgląda się niebo! To pierwsze, zupełnie świeże nagranie w podcaście, co nie znaczy, że moje nagraniowe archiwum się wyczerpało. Na pewno będę do niego wracał. Tymczasem cieszę się, że w końcu mogłem wziąć mikrofon do ręki i ruszyć w teren.Od wielu lat w Kalwarii Zebrzydowskiej i okolicach niewielka grupa pasjonatów zajmuje się obserwacją nieba. Od czasu do czasu spotykają się i próbują do swojej pasji przekonać innych, zapraszają gości, wspólnie obserwują gwiazdy, mgławice, galaktyki i planety. W środę, 17 sierpnia 2021 roku, w Zakrzowie koło Kalwarii Zebrzydowskiej, zorganizowane zostały kolejne już Kalwaryjskie spotkania z astronomią. Były teleskopy wycelowane w niebo, była także opowieść Pawła Warchała z Krakowa o jego astronomicznej podróży do Namibii. Bardzo ucieszyłem się z zaproszenia na to spotkanie. W nagraniu wykorzystałem utwory innego astronoma, pisarza i muzyka, Przemysława Rudzia (Przemek, bardzo dziękuję!) z płyty Cosmological tales (Through The Planck Era, The God Particle's Dance, Let There Be Light, Islands Of The Universe, We Live Here, Disputable Future).O swoim pierwszym teleskopie i zapachu farby opowiadał Marcin Piwowarczyk.

Jia and Lauren sit down in the studio for the first time since March 2020 to discuss reporting during the pandemic and how life has been for the past year. As they discuss personal trials and tribulations the We Live Here team is also excited about the new listener survey. Whether you are a long time listener, contributor, or community member we want your input. What do you enjoy, what can we do better, and what does We Live Here mean to you? Check out our new listener survey by visiting our website at welivehere.show/survey or check us out on social @weliveherestl on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

Steve let's his love for Depeche Mode's Martin Gore be known in a very unorthodox way and seems intent on bringing the weird perversion up frequently on this week's show. Remfry, no stranger to wild perversions himself, respects Steve's life choices, but wants no part of it.  Thank the God of synth-pop then that there's plenty to talk about on this week's show otherwise we'd be stuck in an eternal shitstorm loop. We discuss award show politics and ponder how an artist who has released just one single in the past 12 months can win Best International Female Solo Artist over someone who, in the same period has released three full-length albums all of which have gone to #1 in the UK Charts. Similar pondering occurs over Rage Against the Machine and Iron Maiden still not being deemed worthy entrants to the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame ... although we're less fussed about it than the internet seems to be. Plus we discuss Die Antwoord's removal from ALT+LDN festival and what (if any) implications that has for festival bookings in the future. Oh and listening to heavy metal makes you fat ... apparently.  In terms of reviews, it's our first catch-up show of 2021, as we dissect releases from bands we missed including Bob Vylan's We Live Here (52:52) For Your Health's In Spite Of (72:12) Genesis Owusu's Smiling With No Teeth (82:53) Youth Code & King Yosef's collaborative effort A Skeleton Key in the Doors of Depression (98:36) Ben Howard's Collections From the White Out (121:28) and Kauan's Ice Fleet (133:21). Oh and we get into an argument about nu-metal.  This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

The We Live Here team balances deep dives into systemic issues with inspiring stories about people working to make a difference in their own communities. So when a listener reached out and introduced us to the work of Jeffrey “JD” Dixon, an activist organizing cleanups and coalitions in East St. Louis, a predominantly Black city in Illinois, we knew that we’d have to drive across the river to share his story. In this episode, we’ll learn about JD’s demand for legislative reform, hear from a political science professor about the legacy of industrial suburbs, and talk to a reporter about how JD is one of many Black residents in the Metro East area of Illinois who are pushing back against environmental racism.

The "We Live Here" team delves into their latest Farm Dreams & Toxic Dust episode, and what the rest of the season on environmental racism has to offer.

Many schools have started hybrid in-person and online learning, even as coronavirus cases keep rising and students continue to experience disparities in accessing technology, meeting their daily needs, and learning at home. So in this episode, we’ll hear from a first generation college student who has been helping her community navigate the education system and an executive director of a local education-based nonprofit will share what parents and families face when navigating the St. Louis Public Schools system and how that impacts students’ experiences with higher education. And then, we’ll zoom all the way out to examine why St. Louis’ educational landscape remains uneven and segregated over six decades after the Brown vs. Board of Education decision.  This episode was produced with the help of Lindy Drew, Lead Storyteller and Co-Founder of Humans of St. Louis, which is a paid content partner of Navigate STL Schools and Forward through Ferguson. As always, We Live Here’s coverage remains independent. 

Finalizamos en este programa la historia del Pat Metheny Group y, al igual que en la segunda parte, la retomamos justo después de otro disco en directo, el fantástico The Road to You. En este último capítulo prestaremos atención a algunos de los discos más singulares de esta banda, desde los mas comerciales hasta otros bastante más experimentales. Comenzamos con un par de discos que están fuera de la esfera del Group, pero muy entroncados con su sonido, Secret Story (1992), a nombre solo de Pat, y una producción realizada a la cantante israelí Noa en la que, de una forma u otra (como músicos o en labores de producción) participan casi todos los miembros del group. Y, a continuación, ya nos centramos nuevamente en la discografía oficial del Pat Metheny Group, con ese disco tan controvertido llamado We Live Here (1995), donde hicieron una incursión en sonoridades muy comerciales sin perder gran parte de su encanto. Curiosamente, tras ese disco llegó uno de los más sorprendentes, el mucho mas sobrio y experimental Quartet (1996). El siguiente, Imaginary Day (1997), ya retoma un sonido mucho más afín a lo que el PMG nos tenía acostumbrados y, en este caso, muy influidos por sonidos étnicos y folclóricos de diversas culturas orientales. Y finalizaremos con los dos últimos trabajos de la banda, comenzando por Speaking of Now (2002) en el que se incorporan caras nuevas, como el trompetista coreano Cuong Vu, el gran batería mexicano Antonio Sanchez y nada menos que el multiínstrumentista Richard Bona. El último disco de esta formación (suponemos que no habrá nuevas grabaciones a nombre del PMG debido al reciente fallecimiento de Lyle Mays) fue The Way Up (2005), toda una sinfonía contemporánea. No podia tener esta banda una mejor despedida. Más de cuatro horas de programa han resultado finalmente, pero pensamos que ha merecido la pena que el podcast tenga esta duración. Y esperamos que se os hagan tan cortas como a nosotros grabándolas. Como en los otros dos programas anteriores, ha sido fundamental la participación y las aportaciones de Carles Pinós, miembro de Subterranea y gran amante también de la música de Metheny en general y, concretamente, de la de esta formación. En posteriores ediciones de El Faro del Jazz es posible que abordemos otras facetas de Pat Metheny muy interesantes, esas que hemos ido mencionado durante estos especiales. Como siempre, encantados de acompañaros con el mejor jazz posible desde este faro jazzistico, y bienvenidos a esta nueva temporada.

This is a bonus episode about the making of Black at Mizzou: Confronting Race on Campus, an audio documentary that was recently released by American Public Media. It provides a window into the community of Black students at the University of Missouri-Columbia and the impact of the Concerned Student 1950 movement. In this episode, we hear about the process of hosting and producing the documentary from someone that you already know, but are about to get a whole lot more familiar with: Lauren Brown, co-host and producer for We Live Here.  Black at Mizzou: Confronting Race on Campus from APM Reports is out now-- on the Educate podcast from American Public Media-- everywhere you get podcasts. You can also find it online at apmreports.org.

We delve into the APM Reports “Black at Mizzou” documentary, in which "We Live Here's" Lauren Brown details how Black students fostered their own community, what they call “Black Mizzou,” the racism she faced on campus, where the leaders of the Concerned Student 1950 movement are today and what they think of the movement’s legacy.

Our guest this week is the great Swiggle Mandela. Swiggle is one of the more thoughtful, intentional creators in NW hip-hop, and we sat down to discuss his approach to his career and song-creation, the benchmarks that translate to success, and what it means to be a person of color in Portland at this particular moment. We also play some killer tunes. Swiggle is prolific and active across all social music platforms, and he makes the point that a "like" or a "share" can have a greater impact than anyone thinks. You never know who's on the other end of a share, so be sure to follow him and engage!Music this week:"We Live Here" by Bob Vylan (8:01)"Lit Tonight" by Swiggle Mandela ft.

For four seasons now, St. Louis Public Radio’s We Live Here podcast team has been telling community-driven stories for listeners “somewhere on the woke spectrum.” A couple weeks ago, co-producers and hosts Tim Lloyd and Kameel Stanley took that concept one step further and asked a handful of local young people to do the storytelling themselves. The fresh voices that were in the spotlight at We Live Here’s well-attended house party on Nov. 27 are also the focus of this week’s new episode of the podcast.

Rosetta Watson was functionally evicted from Maplewood after a former boyfriend attacked her. She recently spoke with St. Louis Public Radio’s "We Live Here" podcast team after winning a settlement against the city.

"We Live Here" producer/host Tim Lloyd provides an update on the Missouri Supreme Court's ruling in favor of Latasha Johnson's landlord.

Kameel Stanley joins host Don Marsh to talk about the upcoming episode of “We Live Here.”

Host Don Marsh talks with We Live Here co-producer/host Kameel Stanley about the latest episode of the podcast.

Was a San Francisco church's Beyonce Mass a celebration of God through Beyonce or flat out blasphemy? That's just one of the tough questions The Black Delegates tackle on this week's podcast. We discuss the audacity of caucasity as a white woman in New Jersey berates police officers on the side of the road without getting shot, tased or arrested. Speaking of tasers, a Chicago man cops a feel on an American Airlines flight and takes his tasing like a champ. Kawhi Leonard has beef with Pop and the San Antonio Spurs.

Host Don Marsh spoke with "We Live Here" co-hosts Tim Lloyd and Kameel Stanley about the debut of the podcast's fourth season.

Tim and Kameel give you a preview of what is coming in show’s fourth season, with an extra emphasis on the LIVE HERE part of We Live Here.

Singer/songwriter Laura Veirs talks to other musicians about how they balance work with parenthood, Annie Gilbertson investigates an officer involved in multiple shootings in Repeat, and Kameel Stanley and Tim Lloyd remind St Louis, "We Live Here!"

It almost seemed like a too-good-to-be-true Black History Month gift: the unveiling of the super-cool official portrait of former president Barack Obama. This distinct image of Obama, which is unlike any other presidential portrait, immediately caused a cultural and artistic buzz. Even better for us, it happened to be by the mesmerizing Kehinde Wiley, an artist we had on the podcast in 2016 following a controversy at St. Louis’ contemporary art museum. In that episode, titled “Museum Meltdown,” Wiley spoke to us about the complicated intersection of race, representation and art. But there were a lot of things we left on the cutting room floor. So, in this bonus episode, We Live Here cracks open its vault and shares never-before-heard parts of an interview with Wiley. He gets into the fascination people have with a black artist painting white bodies; a concept he calls “cultural policing;” and the impoliteness of exclusion.

We’re all taught that housing desegregation was a good thing, right? But if you talk to the old-timers in The Ville, they’ll give you a more nuanced story: They’ll tell you it was a gift that came with a curse. In its heyday, The Ville was the beating heart of black Saint Louis, with historic African American institutions like Sumner High School and Homer G Phillips Hospital. Desegregation opened the floodgates for a mass-exodus from The Ville, and now the neighborhood is more than 60 percent vacant.  Out of the Blocks travels to the Ville for this special episode, produced in collaboration with the Saint Louis Public Radio podcast We Live Here and the neighborhood organization 4 The Ville. This episode was made possible by a generous grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. �ڡݠޡ!�"7 v-�

There’s been a lot of chatter in recent years about inclusiveness in the tech world. Companies like Google, Twitter, and Facebook have all been called out for their mostly white and male staffs. But what if, instead of an afterthought, diversity was hardwired into the core of a new start-up scene? That’s what this week’s installment of We Live Here is all about. And we’re not taking you to the coasts or San Francisco to look for answers. Instead, the show goes to Kansas City to tell the story of one man's ambitious plan to build a more racially inclusive tech scene from the ground up.  

We Live Here investigates school suspensions in the early grades. We dig into state discipline data and find: In Missouri, when white kids in K-3 act out, they’re kicked out of class. But the black kids get kicked out of school. We also take a look at what other cities and states are doing about suspensions

We start Season 2 of We Live Here by exploring a concept we're calling "burden of proof." And we ask why is it that race and class have such a huge impact on who gets believed in society. We explore this through the narrative of St. Louis lawyer Thomas Harvey, who confronted his own difficulties believing poor people and black people.

It’s the holiday season, and like many of you, we’re taking stock. Taking stock of what we accomplished with this We Live Here project; the stories and...

This week's We Live Here podcast is something a little different. Recently, we've been looking at health and the way that toxic stress can impact...

Even pleading guilty to a misdemeanor can come with some other penalties. These are called collateral consequences, and they're the focus of this episode of We Live Here.

In this episode of We Live Here, we explore the price and perils of our public defender system.

On this episode of We Live Here we introduce you to four police officers who discuss not only what life is like during the day-to-day grind of work, but also the question of whether or not race makes a difference for African-American officers in majority white police departments.

We Live Here spent the last several weeks ramping up to explore race in St. Louis and, specifically, how systems intersect with people to create a lot of the inequality in our region ... and around the country. Now, we are moving from the general to the specific. We will spend the next several months exploring the criminal justice system.

This episode of We Live Here is all about talking about race without actually talking about race.

We didn’t want to just tell another story about the inequalities that exist in our region. We wanted to tear into the issues, break apart the theory from the reality, demonstrate how the systemic problems that plague our region play out in real people’s lives. And we want to know why we still have these problems — no matter how much academic research and scholarly material there is available to explain the existence of racial inequality, why does it still exist? And so, we came up with We Live Here.
