Episode 3: Columbia University and the Community of West Harlem. For this discussion, we sit down with Trisha Mukherjee, author of the Spectator Eye feature article "A Columbia initiative has placed hundreds in University jobs. But many local residents have never heard of it." We discuss the university's expansion into Harlem and their competence in upholding their side of the community agreement to help residents adjust. We also feature music from the talented Mamadou Yattassaye (minute 14:43), a member of the band Soul For Youth and a resident of West Harlem. You can check out their song Tell Me Lies along with more of their work on Soundcloud.
