Are Houstonians Ready to Break Up With the City?

The last two weeks since Hurricane Beryl have been physically and emotionally draining. So much that a lot of Houstonians are questioning their relationship to the city. Host Raheel Ramzanali is talking with Houston’s Poet Laureate Aris Kian about the emotional aftermath of Beryl, and also hearing from listeners about their frustrations. 

Read Aris’ poem “Tired of #HoustonStrong.” And check out more of her work here.
