Producer Christian Leus travels to Mitchellville, Arkansas, a small Black town close to the Mississippi state line. Mitchellville's story is little known even to Arkansans, but in the 1960s, it was the site of a high-profile civic improvement project started by civil rights leader Daisy Bates. In the first part of this two-part series, we'll explore Mitchellville's foundations and what it means to be a Black town.
