Majora Carter is an environmental justice pioneer, community developer, and TED Talk veteran who never left the South Bronx. In this episode, she talks about building Bronxlandia — a 1908 rail station her father used to look up at from a passing train — into a community venue, the artist question that drives everything she builds, and the invisible work of believing in yourself as hard as you believe in your neighborhood.
