Can you be a good neighbor without knowing Austin’s history? That’s one of the questions City Cast Austin host Miles Bloxson discusses with Huston-Tillotson University student and host of the “Bri the Black Sheep” podcast, Bri Nunn. A video Nunn took of her conversation with a white couple living across from the HBCU has gone viral and thrust conversations about gentrification back into the spotlight. Meanwhile, Austin FC is facing pressure from supporter groups to speak out against federal immigration enforcement. Juan Diego Garcia, cohost of the “¡Vamos Verde!” podcast, has the latest. Plus, Austin Business Journal reporter Sahar Chmais breaks down the businesses that are opening and closing throughout the city.
