7. Through The Cracks
Follow Play
Website Apple Spotify
When 8-year-old Relisha Rudd disappeared from a homeless shelter in Washington, D.C. in 2014, nobody noticed. By the time authorities formally declared Relisha 'missing,' 18 days had passed since she'd been spotted at school or the shelter where her family lived. Seven years later, Relisha has never been found. Through the Cracks investigates gaps in our society and the people who fall through them, and in this first season, host Jonquilyn Hill asks if Relisha's disappearance was, as the city later claimed, unpreventable.MORE Host Jonquilyn Hill

Follow Play
Website Apple Spotify
From the producers of What's With Washington, 51st is a series about Washingtonians' fight for representation. D.C.'s 700,000 residents don't get to elect a voting representative to Congress, and the federal government can block their laws. 51st will trace how racism, party politics, and even an attempted mutiny in Pennsylvania have stood in the way of the city's path to full representation. We'll also try to figure out if D.C. has a real shot at achieving statehood today. Could D.C. ever be the 51st state?MORE Producer/Network WAMU 88.5
