Volker

Started in 1932 the William Volker Charities Fund focused on progressive social programs for the less fortunate in Kansas City but after his death was used to aggressively support a "procapitalist, pro-Christian, and anticommunist agenda."

How William Volker's money laid the foundation for American conservatism and a look at the pandemic's impacts on retirement plans.

With a renewed effort underway, Kansas City could soon rename a street in honor of the civil rights icon that showcases an area targeted for economic development.

With neighborhoods quieted by coronavirus fears and large gatherings still discouraged, one artist found a unique way to bring joy to the streets.
