Behind the scenes of Episode 1: DurhamCares

For the first episode of ReCity Chronicles: The Podcast, host KJ Hill sits down with Reynolds Chapman of Durham Cares for a reflective conversation about what it means to build community in Durham—honestly, relationally, and with a posture of listening.

Reynolds shares the story behind Durham Cares, how The Pilgrimage began, and why this “sacred journey” through Durham helps people reckon with both the pain and the hope held in the city’s history.

Together, KJ and Reynolds explore what it looks like to do the work “with, not for”—and how shared values can turn connection into collaboration.

The 1st episode of ReCity Chronicles The Podcast comes out Thursday, February 5th, 2026!
