A Change of Season: Resident Adaption and Resilience looks at the changing of the Little Italy neighborhood over the years, finding housing in a big city, resident dance parties, and more.
A special thanks to the storytellers from this episode, including Ida Brantley of ABLA, Alderman Walter Burnett Jr of Cabrini-Green, Ned Lufrano of the Jane Addams Homes, and actress Liz Torres of the Amsterdam Homes. We'd also like to thank the members of the Museum's Oral History Corps and other oral historians that recorded the stories including Shirley Alfaro, Francesco DeSalvatore, Ashley Jefferson, and Shakira Johnson.
