Voices in Design is an oral history podcast about truth, testimony, and the way stories take shape in public life. Founded in Chicago in 1966, the show brings forward voices often pushed aside by official narratives, centering the people who lived the story rather than the institutions that tried to define it. Through conversations with organizers, witnesses, writers, and advocates, the podcast examines how media, design, and public language shape what a society remembers, and what it chooses to forget.
