Episode 5: Monica Galloway

Monica Galloway, who has served as a Flint City Council member since 2013, describes how she became the first African American and woman representing Ward 7 to serve on city council. During our discussion, she talks about the origins of modern inequalities in poor black spaces and provides excellent insight into the conditions facing Flint just before the water crisis came to light.  Councilwoman Galloway also discusses the misleading decisions by the state that led to the Flint Water Crisis, shares her perspective on the current settlement offer, and reminds us that the battle for justice persists in Flint.
