Concrete Decisions: When Race Determined Routes

What do Rondo, Hayti, Storyville, and Humboldt Park have in common? They were thriving minority communities - until the U.S. built highways through them. In this episode, we look at how a 1950s infrastructure project tore through Black and immigrant neighborhoods, and what’s being done to make things right. Then we chat with Comedian Natasha Samreny.

Samreny is a third culture comedian who identifies with anyone who treats garlic as a food group. Natasha's performed at The Laugh Factory, Mortified Chicago, and these festivals: Boston Comedy Arts, Latina Comedy, Detroit Women of Comedy, and Edinburgh's Fringe. She hosts a bilingual LatinX storytelling show with Rhode Island Latino Arts.
