Teens From Different D.C. Neighborhoods Confront Race And Identity

Teenagers from two very different neighborhoods of Washington, D.C. got together recently to talk about race, and where they’re from. It’s part of a project run by a teacher who hopes young people can help bridge Washington’s expanding racial and economic divide.

Mikaela Lefrak (@mikafrak) of Here & Now contributor WAMU was there when students from one predominantly black school and one majority white school sat down to get to know one another.
