440- La Brega in Levittown

<p>On the show this week, we’re bringing you an episode of a new podcast called, La Brega. And to tell us all about the series is Alana Casanova-Burgess. Casanova-Burgess traces back the story of the boom and bust of Levittown, a massive suburb that was founded on the idea of bringing the American middle-class lifestyle to Puerto Rico during a time of great change on the island. Casanova-Burgess (herself the granddaughter of an early Levittown resident) explores what the presence of a Levittown in Puerto Rico tells us about the promises of the American Dream in Puerto Rico.</p> <p><a href="https://99percentinvisible.org/?post_type=episode&amp;p=37245" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">La Brega in Levittown</a></p> <p>Subscribe to <a href="https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/la-brega" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">La Brega</a> on <a href="https://www.stitcher.com/show/la-brega" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sitcher</a>, <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/la-brega/id1553089886" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a>, or <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/29uRUkbXF07QPdI5rI5zmK" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Spotify</a></p>
