Minnesota Star Tribune Reporter Eric Roper has spent nearly five years researching the Robinsons, after discovering they lived in his Kingfield home roughly a century ago. They were one of only a few Black families to own a house in southwest Minneapolis at the time. They later moved to the Bryant and Central neighborhoods. Their story shows a long history of ambition, discrimination and resistance that has shaped our city and neighborhoods. It is at the heart of a new podcast called "Ghost of a Chance.”

Join the Star Tribune for an evening that bridges the past and present as we explore the history of neighborhoods in south Minneapolis through the extraordinary lives of Harry and Clementine Robinson.
