For this episode, Marqueece Harris - Dawson is joined by Martin Draluck, Chef de Cuisine at Post and Beam in South LA, formerly of Hatchet Hall in Culver City. You may know Chef Mark for his work on the Netflix Docuseries High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America. 

For this episode, Marqueece Harris - Dawson is joined by the ladies from HBO Max’s Sweet Life: Los Angeles: Amanda Scott, Briana Jones, and Tylynn Burns. Their conversation focuses on generational wealth and what young Black people can do to build wealth and community ownership. 

LA is the creative capital of the world and continues to lead in media and entertainment. How can the media operate as a tool to inform and empower? Media outlets play a vital role in keeping the public informed and engaged. This conversation with Dominique DiPrima and MHD takes an in depth look at the role of Black media and how its influence and power can shift public opinion on any subject.

This episode takes a deeper look into what makes safe communities. My guest, Aqeela Sherrills and I are both strong advocates for holistic Community Safety Partnerships that empower residents to play a role in public safety. These programs have helped contribute to improved public safety and foster better relationships between the police and communities. Aqeela’s dedication to ending violence and promoting community-based public safety began in Watts, Los Angeles, where he joined the Grape Street Crips. At age 19, Aqeela and Hall of Fame NFL star Jim Brown co-founded the Amer-I-Can Program, Inc. to address the impact of systemic racism and heal gang violence in cities across the country by empowering individuals to overcome factors that negatively influenced their lives.  From 1989 to 1999, more than 400,000 adult and juvenile inmates in 16 states were trained in the Amer-I-Can curriculum, and 1500 high risk youth were diverted from continued involvement with California criminal justice system.  During that time, Aqeela was a chief architect of a historic truce between the Crips and Bloods in Watts. That ceasefire began to fray because of the systemic racism that creates conditions that bred crime, drugs, and violence. Aqeela and his brothers created the Community Self-Determination Institute in 1999 to tackle those personal and social issues, including healing communities’ post (and present) traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Aqeela serves as the Senior Advisor to the Alliance for Safety and Justice’s Shared Safety Initiative, a national nonprofit working to replace justice and prison system waste with common sense solutions that create safe neighborhoods and save taxpayer dollars. He is a member of the Board of Directors of The Alliance for Safety and Justice, and Chairman of the Board of the Newark Community Street Team.

On this episode, the roles have shifted a little... Producer, Chavonne Taylor, steps into the host role to interview Los Angeles City Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson about Proposition 50, the single item on California’s November 2025 special ballot.At its core, Prop 50 would put new, temporary voting maps in place for the upcoming election — a direct response to efforts in Texas and other states to tilt congressional districts in President Trump’s favor. The measure has sparked confusion and misinformation, with some claiming it ends independent redistricting. In this conversation, we break down what Prop 50 actually says, why it’s temporary, how it connects to national politics, and what’s at stake for Black and Brown communities in California and beyond.Resources:Statewide Special Election – November 4, 2025Registration deadline: October 20Ballots mailed: October 6Ballot drop-off locations open: October 7Early in-person voting begins: October 25 (in all Voter’s Choice Act counties)Vote-by-mail ballots must be postmarked by: November 4 and received by November 12Every active registered voter will automatically receive a vote-by-mail ballot.
