11/8 – TODAY’S GUEST Leo Sosa and Chris Gil of Mission Economic Development Agency (MEDA) talks about closing the digital divide and the need for diversity in the tech world.

San Francisco’s Mission District used to be a supportive place for low-income and immigrant Latinos. It’s now one of the most unaffordable neighborhoods in the country. As a result, 8,000 Latinos have been forced from their homes since the year 2000. MEDA is using its 40+ years of experience to rebuild this community and help Latinos and others access economic opportunities. This is a community effort. We are investing in people.

Listen to Charles Williams, occasional co-host Eyez, and Gina “The Producer” every Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 12 Noon. Fun and informative talk radio on Radio Valencia!
