On the Grid with Zephyr Teachout airs Mondays at 8:00pm
Zephyr Teachout, 2014 Democratic gubernatorial candidate, with help from CUNY's Center for Urban Research, is redrawing Brooklyn's traditional neighborhood boundaries. Gone are the arbitrary borders of Gravesend and Sunset Park, Williamsburg and Fort Greene — instead, she’s exploring the maps of Brooklyn that tell the story of today’s demographics… From ‘Republican Brooklyn’ to ‘Yiddish Brooklyn’ and beyond.
