About this Episode:
In Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “What is your life’s blueprint?” speech, he says to young people who may face limitations, “But we must keep moving. We must keep going.” In this episode, we talk with the head of a 140-year-old community organization, a public health researcher, and the artistic director of the historic Penumbra Theater about what drives them and their work challenging centuries of segregating color, power, and opportunity in this country.
