About 81/61

It’s 1981. Reagan was just inaugurated. Cleveland is emerging from default. We're reeling from manufacturing losses. Racial division abounds. The Greater Cleveland Roundtable, a coalition of CEOs and community leaders, is searching for ways to regain their region’s growth and struggling with ways to include folks of color. 81/61 reckons with their effort by exploring the organization’s lost document archive and to tell a story about where we have been in the last 40 years and how we might achieve racial equity in the next 40. 81/61 is an original series from the Greater Cleveland Partnership. New episodes are released every two weeks between June 7th and August 16th, 2021. 81/61 is generously supported by the George Gund Foundation.

II: Race Relations in 1981

Was the Roundtable an effort to fight the root causes of inequity, or just an attempt to keep racial unrest in Cleveland out of the headlines? We uncover a seminal study of Cleveland’s racial disparities and how Roundtable members like Mayor George Voinovich reacted.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
