Three Miles
by This American Life from on (#3CXJ0)
For our 25th Anniversary, a favorite episode from 2015. There's a program that brings together kids from two schools. One school is public and in the country's poorest congressional district. The other is private and costs $43,000/year. They are three miles apart. The hope is that kids connect, but some of the public school kids just can't get over the divide. We hear what happens when you get to see the other side and it looks a lot better.
