Respair Presents: Quantum Entanglements

Hey AirGo fam! We've got a new project we're hyped to share with you about a really big story happening right here in Chicago. Quantum Entanglements is a new multimedia investigative feature from Respair about South Side Chicago communities fighting for self-determination in response to potentially being poisoned, pushed out, and policed by an impending 9-billion dollar quantum computer on the shores of Lake Michigan. You can also check out the video version here: https://www.youtube.com/@respairmedia, and share the podcast with your people here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/respair-presents-quantum-entanglements/id1721426761Over the four decades since the US Steel South Works steel mill shut its doors, the land it sat on has remained undeveloped as the surrounding communities heal from the physical, environmental, economic, and social wounds left behind by this industrial behemoth. Now, a coalition of public and private power players from all levels of government and different sectors of industry is preparing to break ground on a "Quantum Campus"–a multi-billion dollar sprawling facility of next-generation technology and surveillance that could both release poisonous contamination and dismantle digital privacy around the globe. As the next industrial revolution descends on a community still reeling from the destruction of deindustrialization, we talk with organizers and neighbors living alongside the site about how they're building power, demanding answers, making sense of the area’s history, and fighting for the ability to determine the future of their neighborhoods, livelihoods, and relationships to the land on which they live.Check out the video version here: https://www.youtube.com/@respairmediaShare the podcast with your people here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/respair-presents-quantum-entanglements/id1721426761Get the Quantum Entanglements Listening Guide here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19sgxkK8Uf45YpsgjuGECzzuij4sBBoC8/view?usp=sharingQuantum Entanglements was recorded at Chicago Beyond and Kit Studios here in Chicago. Find all of our work at http://respairmedia.com. CREDITSCohosts & Executive Producers - Damon Williams and Daniel Kisslinger. Video Post-Production Supervisor - Troi VallesLead Video Editor - Troi VallesMultimedia Producer - Troi Valles Associate Audio Editors - Cin Pimentel & Rocio Santos  Engagement Producer - Rivka YekerAdditional Reporting - Kamari PatrickArtwork - Areanna Eggleston & Danbee KimMUSICDubstep Next Left (feat.
