People’s Liberty grantees featured on national podcast
Kevin Wright and Joe Nickol wrote The Neighborhood Playbook to unite community developers and everyone else around common goals, starting in Cincinnati.
This week’s episode of the popular Plural of You podcast featured two local People’s Liberty grantees and authors of The Neighborhood Playbook.
The podcast described Joe Nikol and Kevin Wright as two Cincinnati-based planners who “wrote a field manual…to guide developers and residents alike toward a common development model, which they divided into five steps or ‘plays.’”
“What I’ve learned from Kevin and Joe is that community development doesn’t have to be this enormous, out-of-reach process that we sometimes imagine it to be,” says the podcast host. “There are certainly caveats, and we have to be willing to let go of our own ideas and compromise sometimes to see them grow. At least we have the steps now to get out and start something new.”
