Episode 16: Keep Our Courts with Joele Newman, Jenn Arens and Amy Silver
On the corner of Main and Schiller in Over-the-Rhine, a neighborhood in downtown Cincinnati, there are two public basketball courts and a garden; located across the street from an elementary school, this is a spot for neighborhood kids and adults to play basketball, work in the garden, or just hang out. Since 2015, outside developers have been interested in buying this property from the city and their intentions and plans for the land do not put the needs or desires of the community first. Over-the-Rhine has faced rapid gentrification since the beginning of the 2000s with many longtime residents being pushed...

Through his work, basketball courts become both celebratory and spiritual, soccer balls are brought into question as a tool of oppression and the audience is called upon to rethink the rules and confines that exist in sports and ultimately, the rest of our culture.
