Where I Live, or Old Battlefields of Brooklyn
from World BEYOND War: a new podcast · host World BEYOND War
A pacifist meditation on battlefields and a walk through Brooklyn's Prospect Park, where a decision was made in the middle of the 19th century to obliterate the hills that held the ghosts of the Battle of Brooklyn on August 27 1776, one of the worst days in George Washington's life. Marc Eliot Stein talks about city living, ethnic neighborhoods, "Little Caribbean", the legacy of white flight and more.
