The European Union has some of the same problems we do: damaging climate change, a flood of immigrants, and a population frequently in disagreement.

Nice. These valiant design knights of the design realm include Bjarke Ingels, Shiguru Ban, Francesca Bria, and today’s guest

Like the Holy Grail or Colonel Sanders special 11 herbs and spices, people have been searching for the secret to successful prefabricated houses for nearly 100 years. What could possibly be better than reasonably-priced, mostly factory built house parts assembled on your land in a matter of days or weeks, not months? The promise of well-designed houses fast and cheap turns out, not so easy – or popular with a public that still prefers developer tract houses. Joining us is Professor Avi Friedman,

Bertie County, North Carolina, has only about 19,000 people, about 62% Black. That's fewer than in most city zip codes.

Black farmers lost much of their land as subsidies and credit by the USDA heavily favored white farmers. In 2007, the schools were in terrible shape, as you might expect. Then, an innovative school superintendent came to town, did a great job, and got fired. One of the programs
