Shaker Heights and the Quest For Racial Equality

Feature Interview With Author Laura Meckler

Welcome to “Great Books, Great Voices” a weekly podcast where we aim to ignite a new world of community, connection and conversation one book at a time. My name is Diamond-Michael Scott and I am your global book ambassador and show host. 

Joining me in this episode is Laura Meckler, an award winning journalist and author of the book “Dream Town: Shaker Heights and the Quest For Racial Equity.” In her book she tells the story of this decades-long pursuit in Shaker Heights, Ohio, uncovering the roadblocks that have threatened progress time and again—in housing, in education, and in the promise of shared community.
