Lead writer on Exodus and Equity, a series about Jews, North Minneapolis, and systemic racism
-
Jun 2020 - Sep 2020
Reported and wrote a four-part series called "Exodus and Equity: Reconciling the history of Minneapolis' Jewish North Side," all about how the Jewish community's move from city neighborhoods to the suburbs in the 1950s and 60s was tied up with racist real estate policies that contributed to long-lasting racial poverty and inequality. I also recorded, edited, and produced an episode of The Jews Are Tired podcast as part of this series.
