Sacramento, CA: All Hands on Deck

What this episode covers

There’s been a lot of bad news coming out of Sacramento lately: homelessness, the foreclosure rate, unemployment, political gridlock in a state crippled by the recession.

And we left with the realization that people in Sacramento are remaking the American city, in surprising and deeply moving ways. State of the Re:Union wants to hear from you!
