Can Cultural Capital combat Gentrification? For this episode we
partnered with the City of Atlanta Mayor’s Office of Cultural
Affairs for its public arts program ELEVATE, where we had a
chance to talk about how Hip-Hop’s Cultural Capital is in
conversation with Political Capital and Financial Capital when big
neighborhood change is on the way. First up, we had a conversation with Renaldo
Nehemiah, who is a curator and stylist to hip-hop celebrities from Ludacris to
Migos to Jermaine Dupri. Later, we sat down with Ryan Gravel and Heather
Infantry of the non-profit Generator, about how a city blends culture, ideas,
and development to maintain a sense of place for everyone.
