How does public space impact people’s day to day lives? In this episode, we speak with Majora Carter, a MacArthur Genius Grant winner and an American urban revitalization strategist based in the South Bronx, New York, where she grew up. We explore topics ranging from community pride, increasing equity in one’s neighborhood, and discuss the impact of public space on individuals and families. Majora has used her experiences to engage the community to try to make her neighborhood more equitable and sustainable. We speak to Majora at the Boogie Down Grind Cafe, which she co-owns and runs with a local family.
