This is the Radio Boston rundown for Sept. 30. Tiziana Dearing is our host.

  • This week, the White House hosted the first hunger conference in over 50 years. We dive beneath the headlines with Massachusetts Congressman Jim McGovern to learn how the conference aims to transform food insecurity.
  • Boston's city archaeologist has been digging holes on Shirley Street in Roxbury, looking for remnants of some of New England's only known remaining slave quarters. He believes he found them. We talk about what it means to unearth new pieces of state history, and what we owe to the memory of enslaved people in our community.

This program aired on September 30, 2022.
