Josette Williams Reactivates Boston District 4 in Bid for Council Seat

Trickle-Down Socialism

Dan talks to lifelong educator Josette Williams who is running for Boston City Council about how she plans to reactivate her district (D4) to create a city government that works for all residents, not just the fortunate few. Topics of their discussion include: a city-wide minimum wage, equity in public education, how to engage youth in government and education, racial and gender equity, and the myth of progress being achieved after one person breaks the glass ceiling. https://www.voteforjosette.com/
