Por: We Are North Nashville

They've seen an interstate cut their once-thriving neighborhood in half. They've seen their community cut off from the commercial and cultural engines of the city. They've seen racialized terror visited on their own backyards. But through it all, they've fought to hold onto the place they love.We Are North Nashville: The Podcast is about the lives of elders who call North Nashville home, in their own words. It's about the ways the elders have kept joy alive in their neighborhood in spite of all the challenges it has faced. It's about the history that newcomers to the city don't always know, or even think to ask about. It's about walking the streets and still seeing the way people held this place together, even when city planners set about ripping it apart.This is a show about North Nashville. It's also a story about the United States, where Black communities have been cut apart, razed and deprived for generations in the name of progress that does not include them. More importantly, We Are North Nashville is what happens when the people who live history get to tell it.
