A daily ritual—the commute—shapes our exploration of mobility, access and economic movement from the margins of a city to its center. With broadcast, texts, social media and bus ads, we bring curiosity to hidden, nonstop migration.

ICYMI, Coen is a high school freshman, and he takes four buses to get to school, which takes four-five hours round trip. His family was displaced due to unaffordable housing costs, but he prefers to stay at the school where his friends are, despite the long haul of a commute. From #WTFlux and @kbcs for #FindingAmerica.

"Don't think about someone from a medical perspective-how much they can hear, how much they can see-but rather consider the individual's while experience...and remember they are capable." Debra Kahn educated #WTFlux for @kbcs #findingamerica on the pro-tactile movement, a communication method in the DeafBlind community that uses the sense of touch as the main mode.

"It's ok to ask, 'what's the safest way to help you?'" After @kbcs aired Dorian Taylor's story, on Dorian's advocacy around transit policy changes for disabled people, King County Metro invited Dorian for a meeting with their ADA Compliance Officer.

"Nobody asked ME about MY America!" -These words, spoken by poet Georgia Stewart McDade, perfectly sum up why projects like #Localore are needed. Our #WTFlux #findingamerica storytelling event with @kbcs brought together an intersection of different voices we've gotten the honor of featuring in public media. This is a photo of @sonyangreen killing it as the evening's emcee (at Taste of The Caribbean - Seattle)

"I drove this route about 15 years ago...those unoccupied buildings and bare land...(And now) to see it so developed, the amount of housing, businesses...condos that have come, it's really different."

Waking up before the sun rises and driving a big machine are two things Janice Rapier likes to do. After 30 years of perfecting this routine as a part-time transit operator for King County Metro Transit, Janice appreciates the perks of driving a bus. And she especially likes the fact that it’s one profession where as a woman, she’s treated equally. News Director, Sonya Green and #WTFlux #findingamerica producer, Mona Yeh bring you a dispatch from the bus driver’s seat. Here’s the dispatch.
