News & Politics


Across the United States of America, there are predominately African American Communities that experience higher rates of violence, unemployment, single-parent families, school dropout, and because of those things and more… there is a hope deficit for many. The most glaring example of that in our nation is with young African American men. Also happening across America, all be it more recently, is an increasing tendency to look to Mayors for solutions and reliable partnerships. The reasons for that include less partisan based legislative gridlock and a keener eye for the actual on the ground issues. Interests across the spectrum are increasingly seeing a bottom-up rather than a top-down approach as a more effective way forward. Today on the City Voice Podcast the conversation is with Anthony Smith of Cities United. Cities United is working directly in support of over 120  Mayors across America in an effort to more effectively turn the tide when it comes to violence, homicide, unemployment and lack of hope to name a few. Particularly for young African American men. My guest Anthony Smith has his own story of hope. My conversation on the City Voice Podcast is with Anthony Smith of Cities United.
