For progressives and activists in Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, and beyond, our local Community Board is an often overlooked vestige of community empowerment that is crying out for more engagement. In our wonkiest episode yet, we'll introduce our local Community Board Ten and explore it from all sides. We'll hear from political aides, long-time board members, and activists. Along the way, we'll dive into the strange, bureaucratic history of the boards and help explain why they function the way they do. Today's guests are Joanne Seminara (longtime CB10 member), Vinny (local political aide), and Brian Hedden (head of our South Brooklyn Transportation Alternatives chapter).
