À propos de cet audio
At 75th & Prospect, Kansas City’s summer playground promised “family fun”—but for decades, Black families were turned away except on “private” days. This 20–25 minute episode walks you from the rides and bandstands to the picket lines: youth-led protests at the gates, the push that led to 1964 public accommodations, and the park’s final years after storms and new competition. We visit the jazz ties (Charlie Parker played here), the policy choices behind exclusion, and what stands on the grounds today. I open the door—you walk through it. Names, places, receipts… then go look them up.
