Zócalo Public Square connects people to ideas and to each other in an open, accessible, non-partisan and broad-minded spirit. Through their web magazine, lectures, panels, screenings, and conferences, Zócalo takes on ideas that enhance our understanding of community—the forces that strengthen or undermine human connectedness and social cohesion.

KCRW has partnered with Zócalo Public Square to bring you this series of talks. KCRW does not endorse the content but presents it as a way to foster discussion and debate about life in Los Angeles.
