Out of the Archives, Season 4
Episodes 23–26
Season 4 of Out of the Archives is our first foray into writing and editing the podcast with a seasonal format in mind.
Across episodes 23–26, the season engages public housing residents’ conversations about equity and displacement, blending these insights with reflections on their hopes and dreams for public housing communities and lands.
This season, the curatorial team is also experimenting with sound design to give listeners a more intimate encounter with residents’ memories and the history.
