Mondays Replay: Highways and Partisanship

January 8, 2024

We’re back from the new year but no so back that I have enough material for a Mondays show. So as we started doing at the end of last year, I’m going to share a throwback Talking Headways from time to time to go back to some episodes I found interesting and perhaps mention more than a few times during current interviews.

This episode specifically is with Clayton Nall about his book The Road to Inequality: How the Federal Highway Program Polarized America and Undermined Cities and originally was released 6 years ago in July of 2018. Clayton is now a professor at UC Santa Barbara but his book and work still ring true.

Get Clayton’s book from our bookshop.org site here.

Testimonials

…the first thing I read every morning is the newsletter to see what’s been out there. It’s great to have an aggregator that pulls everything together so nicely.

Joe Cortright, City Observatory

I think that the email newsletter that you do every morning is the best one that I get, and I get a lot of them.

Mary Newsom, The UNC Charlotte Urban Institute

Really is the best daily urban newsletter out there.

Eric Jaffe, Editorial Director Sidewalk Labs
