Kansas City Today

'18th and Vine is changing'


Listen Later

Development in the Historic 18th and Vine district has lagged for decades behind the rest of Kansas City. That appears now to be changing — and fast — raising concerns among longtime residents and business owners about gentrification. KCUR’s Carlos Moreno brings us this story.

Fallout continues in the Derby School District, just outside of Wichita, over a video about racial profiling, white privilege, and discrimination shown to teachers and staff, after the principal was requested to issue an apology. KMUW education reporter Suzanne Perez talks to Up To Date host Steve Kraske about what was happening behind the scenes.
