Mind to Grow, shares residents' unapologetic love for their homes, memories of childhood summer fun, and the strength within the community.

A special thanks to the storytellers from this episode, including Nakia Herron of the Robert Taylor Homes, Doris Johnson and her son Michael Johnson of the Cabrini-Green Homes, Gregory Sain of the Robert Taylor Homes, Carrie Torres of the Castle Hill Houses, and Janet Williams of Chicago public housing. We'd also like to thank the members of the Museum's Oral History Corps and other oral historians who recorded these stories including Ashley Jefferson and Shakira Johnson.
