This Special Episode was developed by members of our Community Advisory Board to let the DC Council know what issues are important to them in their own words before the DC Council votes on the DC FY 2021 Budget.
Donte discusses his experiences growing up as a Black male in DC, caring for his siblings, and well as how violence in his neighborhood and encounters with the police have impacted his life.
We discuss the second round of the DC Council's COVID-19 Response Legislation, as well as actions taken by the DC and federal governments to assist people during this crisis.
