We’re building a grassroots coalition in Council District 10.

Why I’m Running

I am running for Los Angeles City Council to be a fighter for our community: to fight for our fair share of city services in Council District 10, to win policies that advance equity, and to create a district that respects the dignity, power, pride and participation of all its residents. 

I am hopeful that the best days are ahead for the residents of Council District 10, but we must protect the gains we have made through years of community-led organizing in the city.

Homelessness and Affordability

Through my own lived experience of homelessness and as a Member of Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority’s Committee on Black People Experiencing Homelessness, I know how difficult it is to recover from the trauma of not knowing where you will sleep.

To improve the quality of life for everyone in Council District 10, we need to fight poverty and not the poor. I will drive toward economic development that generates local, living wage and union jobs, protects worker’s rights, and creates career opportunities for our residents.

Reimagining Public Safety and Investing In Neighborhoods

Long-time activist and Los Angeles native Aqeela Sherrills encourages us to reimagine public safety by recognizing that "Safety is not the absence of violence or crime. Safety is the presence of well-being and the infrastructure to support victims and survivors in a healthy way."

To be afraid is to behave as if the truth were not true.”
