About this listen
In this episode of the NAACP Akron Power and Community Podcast, Dr. Lathardus Goggins II and Willie B are joined by community advocate Leah Holden for a timely discussion on housing, justice, and community action in Akron. The conversation examines how redlining, urban renewal, and outdated zoning policies continue to shape housing access, neighborhood development, and the future of the city. The episode also highlights current criminal justice concerns, including police surveillance technology, public accountability, and the push to end the death penalty in Ohio.
Listeners will also hear important updates from the NAACP Akron general meeting, along with information about upcoming events, advocacy efforts, and opportunities to stay engaged in the work of building a more just community.
Knowledge is power, and organized power makes change happen.
