HUB History - Our Favorite Stories from Boston History

For Black History Month, we're dropping some of our favorite past episodes back into the podcast feed every few days this month. Enjoy! 50 years ago this week, residents of one Boston neighborhood carried out an act of civil disobedience, bringing attention to the city’s need for affordable housing. A group of mostly African American residents occupied an empty lot where rowhouses once stood. It was Boston’s 1968 Tent City protest, and it helped change how the city approaches development and urban planning. Show notes: http://HUBhistory.com/077
