In honor of the MLK holiday, THOTM is highlighting Dr. Kyra Greene, Executive Director of the Center on Policy Initiatives. She was selected as a civil rights speaker for the San Diego Women’s March 2020.

THOTM has been documenting the organizing of SDWM, and had the honor of talking with Dr. Greene in the weeks leading up to the march. In this interview, she talks about her deep roots in activism, workers rights,  and the role of Black women in civil rights for everyone.

 Gabrielle Gosselin is a counselor, instructor, and program coordinator of the CalWORKS program at Grossmont Community College in San Diego. Gabrielle talked with us about her unique upbringing, which inspired her sense of cultural awareness and passion for social justice.  She also spoke candidly about her experience as a volunteer relief worker in Rwanda, and lessons on humility. Thank you Gabrielle for sharing your story with THOTM community!
