North Star Journey series explores homeownership, financial literacy, and whiteness

In this latest selection from the MPR News North Star Journey series, editor Brandt Williams interviews Chad Montrie, who recently published a book about racial exclusion in Minnesota.

You’ll also hear a report from Mark Zdechlik about efforts to expand financial literacy education, and a story from Kirsti Marohn about efforts to bridge the homeownership gap in St. Cloud.

These stories are made possible in part by the Minnesota Legacy Amendment's Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
