Newsday and Levittown | Chapter 4: Epilogue
A conversation between two Long Islanders — one black, one white — with different reactions to Newsday’s series on the practices of real estate agents. After “Long Island Divided” was published we opened up our Letters to the Editor section and a special voicemail hotline. Here’s what we heard from readers about their experiences of discrimination and life on Long Island.
Hosted by Mark Chiusano, a member of the Newsday editorial board. Produced by Amanda Fiscina.
