Episode Synopsis

A lot is happening at 44 King St in Worcester, Massachusetts. Sha-Asia Medina, along with a group of amazing people, took ownership of a long-standing community space in the middle of the pandemic. Through hard work and tough conversations, they’re continuing to create a place for learning, love, and respect, better known as The Village. This Afrocentric cultural, learning & healing center in the Main South neighborhood sounds like a giant facility, but is really just a triple decker they transform to suit their needs. Learn about how they connect BIPOC groups, healers, and individuals whose work is rooted in racial justice, learning, creativity, and community.
