City Cast Austin

Gentrification, Food Insecurity and Mental Health With Council Member Natasha Harper-Madison

Listen Later

Austin City Council Member Natasha Harper-Madison wants East Austin, where she was raised and now serves, to keep changing. That can put her on the other side of historic preservation at times, but she has her reasons why, and her vision for what East Austin could be. She joins host Nikki DaVaughn to discuss gentrification, food insecurity, and how she found her peace while balancing city council responsibilities and mental health.
