Last month, Brookings Metro, formerly the Brookings Metropolitan Policy Program, turned 25. Since Brookings Metro's conception in 1996, America's cities and urban communities have changed dramatically. On this episode of the Brookings Cafeteria podcast, you'll hear from metropolitan experts on how America's local communities have changed, where things stand at this crucial moment in time amid generational federal investment, and what it will take in the future for every community in America to be prosperous, just, and resilient.
