What if your voice could shape the budget of your city? What if communities held the power to dictate their own development and welfare? Embark with us on a journey to explore these possibilities… As we speak with Dr. David C. Turner III, Assistant Professor of Black Life and Racial Justice at UCLA's Luskin School of Public Affairs. Dr. Turner is an activist scholar from Inglewood, California, and his research focuses on youth-based social movements, political identity, and resistance to the prison regime.
