Land of Opportunity

The United States long history of prejudice and injustice has shaped our roads, our cities, our lives…but so has resistance to it.

Land of Opportunity is a historical documentary special that looks at the racist history of housing segregation in Kansas City, MO and how the black residents of the Santa Fe Place neighborhood fought to integrate and in turn, change the housing landscape of the United States.

Land of Opportunity aired on Kansas City PBS and won an NATAS Midwest Regional Emmy in 2020 for Best Historical Documentary.
