These Suburbs are More Diverse than the TC. Plus, MN's First-Ever Black Book Fair and Reuniting Pets with Deported Owners

from City Cast Twin Cities · host City Cast

This weekend, Minneapolis becomes home to the very first Midwest Black Book Fair. Dr. Terresa Hardaway shares how she built it (and how to get your free tickets!). PaviElle French joins guest host Tiffany Bui to talk about their experiences as people of color in the suburbs – before and after some burbs “became even more racially diverse than the Twin Cities”. And Carrie Openshaw at The Bond Between tells us about the adoptable dog who currently has her heart, and how the region rallied to care for the pets of people displaced by Operation Metro Surge.     ⁠Become a City Cast Twin Cities Neighbor⁠ Learn more about the topics discussed in today's episode: ⁠Midwest Black Book Fair⁠ ⁠The Bond Between⁠ ⁠These Twin Cities suburbs are more diverse than Minneapolis or St. Paul⁠ (Star Tribune) Learn more about the sponsors of this August 20th episode: ⁠Ordway Center for the Performing Arts⁠ ⁠Science Museum of Minnesota⁠ ⁠Xcel Energy⁠ Want to get in touch?
