Royce McLemore and Damian Morgan are both social activists and lifelong residents of Golden Gate Village, an historical public housing complex in Marin City, California. Golden Gate Village was originally built in 1961 to house Black American shipbuilders who came to the area during World War II, because after the war, Black people found themselves redlined and unable to purchase property anywhere else in Marin County. But as a result, Golden Gate village is now a thriving multigenerational community. 0:00 – The Untold Story of Marin City2:09 – How WWII Shipyards Changed America Forever4:21 – Growing Up Black in a Forgotten Community9:12 – Floods, Redlining, and the Struggle to Survive11:35 – Teenage Motherhood Against All Odds16:04 – The Housing Project That Was Meant to Be Paradise20:00 – White Flight and the Fight to Save Home30:44 – Falling Back in Love With Marin City33:14 – When Schools Fail Black Students35:06 – How Parents Built a Freedom School39:32 – Growing Up With the Black Panthers Nearby41:00 – A Charter School Torn Apart by Corruption47:03 – The State Cracks Down on Racist Policies52:02 – From Community Struggles to New Hope1:00:52 – Bureaucracy vs. Community Needs1:02:20 – Why Funding Isn’t the Real Problem1:03:17 – The Fight Against Anti-Blackness in Education1:04:31 – A Vision Since 1999: Building a School for the Future1:07:32 – Granddaughters Rising: From Classrooms to Stem Cells1:10:39 – Golden Gate Village: Racism, Resistance, and Renewal1:18:21 – Lawsuits, Resilience, and Hope for Change
