On July 10, Tim and Kameel hosted We Live Here's annual "I Live Here" storytelling experience. This summer's show was hosted in conjunction with Second Tuesdays, a community storytelling collective. In honor of We Live Here's fourth season, which explores the intersection of race, class and housing in one of the nation's most segregated regions, the show's theme was "Homes and the Stories They Hold."
Hear stories from locals who participated:
