 Whole Foods in Prince George's County?

Prince George's County residents have long complained that high-end
retailers ignore their communities. So why are some resisting a new Whole
Foods supermarket...?

Whole Foods wants to build its first supermarket in Prince George's County,
Maryland. County residents and public officials say their communities are
regularly overlooked by high-end retailers and businesses. So why is a
proposed development -- on Route 1, near College Park -- meeting with local
resistance? Kojo talks with community activists and officials, and explores
the challenge of attracting and retaining businesses in Prince George's
County.
