For this installment of the Redacted History Podcast, I had an enlightening and vulnerable conversation with Dorian Warren, the Co President of Community Change and Community Change Action. In this episode we discuss what life has been like for Dorian, a Black father living in Washington DC during a second Trump administration and the current military occupation of DC. We discuss how Trump wants to not only takeover DC but move to other progressive cities like Chicago, Dorian's hometown. Finally we talked about what folks who want to take action can plan to do over the next 3.5 years .  Community Change is a nonprofit organization founded in 1968 at the height of the civil rights movement by leaders of the civil rights and anti poverty movements. They fight for economic freedom, a care economy that allows families. Providers, and communities to access care, and an immigrant inclusive multiracial democracy. They believe that unless we can find a path toward an immigrant-inclusive multiracial democracy, the number of Americans excluded from basic social and economic protections will continue to increase, and conflicts over rights and resources will tear us apart. About Dorian Warren: Dorian Warren is co-President of  Community Change and Community Change Action. A progressive scholar, organizer and veteran media personality, Dorian has worked to advance racial, economic and social justice for more than two decades. Growing up on Chicago’s South Side, Dorian learned firsthand the power of unions to unleash economic opportunities. His great-grandparents were sharecroppers, his grandparents were janitors and his mother was a teacher in Chicago’s public schools for more than 40 years.
