The Center for Public Integrity recently published a six part series called “Abandoned in America.” Every piece is a gem. Today we dedicate the entire hour to talking to three of the authors: Dave Levinthal, who wrote, “Train Off Track,” about a high speed rail project stalled in Fresno, CA. Ashley Balcerzak wrote “Forgotten and Failing,” about education in Yazoo, Mississippi. Sarah Kleiner wrote, “Disastrous Recovery,” about the recovery from two successive hurricanes in Robeson County, N. Carolina.

Dave and Sarah are Part One, and Dave and Ashley in Part Two.
