Mold. No heat. Crumbling infrastructure. Residents of Buffalo Municipal Housing Authority properties have been living in these conditions for decades — and the people in charge have largely looked the other way.

In this episode of The Public Good, host Dejia James of Partnership for the Public Good (PPG) is joined by community activist Nate Boyd and organizer John Washington, co-founder of the National Tenant Union Federation, for a candid and powerful conversation on the ongoing crisis inside BMHA public housing. They trace the roots of public housing segregation and redlining, document the harrowing conditions residents face today, and detail their months-long fight to hold the BMHA executive director and Buffalo's Common Council accountable — with more action on the way.

🎙️ The Public Good Podcast, brought to you by Partnership for the Public Good, centers conversations with leaders and changemakers working toward a more just, equitable Buffalo.
