  • Description
  • Dr. Leroy Patrick shares his thoughts about the significance of Pittsburgh as a hub in Western Pennsylvania and the need for regional development and planning. He discusses Pittsburgh's central role in the prosperity of the surrounding areas, the importance of transportation, the relationship between Pittsburgh and its satellite regions, and the lack of leadership focus on regional growth. Dr. Patrick also shares his thoughts about the Allegheny Conference's efforts towards regional development, concerns about job creation, and the emergence of Black political power in northeastern cities, including Pittsburgh. The conversation explores the challenges of city planning, the role of ethnic communities, and the impact of religious leaders in maintaining ethnic divisions and hindering metropolitan planning.
