Police Surveillance Files, Racist Maps, and Other Secrets Hidden in the City Archives

They like to say they have the receipts for everything the city has ever done, in public or private. Today we're talking with City Archivist Madeline Moya about what’s inside this archive, and how it helps hold local government accountable.
