Airbnb In Kansas City; 'We Shall Not Be Moved'

Cities across the nation are dealing with the effects of Airbnb, and Kansas City is one of them. Is the in-home hospitality service changing your neighborhood?

Plus, the Coterie Theater is putting on a production called 'We Shall Not Be Moved.' Whether it's a department store in 1960, or a football field in 2017 . . . how civil rights protest has and hasn't changed.

People don't make cameos in news stories; the human story is the story, with characters affected by news events, not defined by them. As a columnist and podcaster, I want to acknowledge what it feels like to live through this time in Kansas City, one vantage point at a time. Together, these weekly vignettes form a collage of daily life in Kansas City as it changes in some ways, and stubbornly resists change in others.
