"Jamarhl Crawford stood on the sidewalk outside the Nubian Notion gift shop in Dudley Square, microphone in hand and an enormous screen in front of him. And on that 60-inch television, Zach Cone, standing in Brookline’s Coolidge Corner, spoke to him.

The two men were separated by just 2.5 miles, or a few minutes on the No. 66 bus. But that distance can seem insurmountable when one neighborhood is predominantly black and working class and the other is a wealthy, mostly white community. As they chatted about their family histories, Crawford and Cone seemed closer."
