Today I'm talking with Kenyatta, co-managing director and founding member of BlackSpace Urbanist Collective. Kenyatta and I go way back. Since studying together as undergrads at UCLA, Kenyatta has become an extraordinary entrepreneur who's reshaping the definition of an urban landscape. Before then she grew up in southern California, soaking up the wisdom of the matriarchs in her family as she navigated complex issues of race, mental health, and community.
