In this episode of Shaping Charlotte, hosts Clayton Sealey and Tesho Akindele sit down with two leaders shaping the future of opportunity in our region: Tonya Jameson, Director of Civic Advancement at Leading on Opportunity, and Shannon Binns, Founder and Executive Director of Sustain Charlotte.

Together, they explore how the P.A.V.E. Act could transform Charlotte’s transit and transportation systems—unlocking new pathways for economic mobility, equity, and environmental sustainability.

Before diving into the conversation, Clayton shares a reflection on the tragic murder of Iryna Zarutska on Charlotte’s transit system, placing it in the larger context of public safety and the role that transit plays in shaping our daily lives.

From confronting hard truths about safety and justice, to reimagining how we connect people to jobs, schools, and communities, this episode tackles the intersection of transit, opportunity, and quality of life.
