Join us as we sit down with Dr. Susan Walcott to explore the history and impact of Buford Highway. We dive into how the area has grown and changed over time, its immigrant communities, and its role in regional economic development. Dr. Walcott also shares insights from her research on technology, innovation, and community growth, and gives us a behind-the-scenes look at her work on our upcoming Buford Highway documentary!
