Date: 2023-09-25

In this episode of Pathways To Progress, Lisa Savage is joined by City Councilors Victoria Pelletier and Regina Phillips. The trio discusses the issues raised in the latest person-on-the-street interviews and shares their thoughts on them. They also talk about their week, which was eventful due to a Zoom bombing incident during their meeting. The councilors, who are people of color, share their personal experiences of dealing with the racist, homophobic, transphobic, and anti-Semitic comments that were made during the meeting. The meeting was suspended midway, and the councilors went into executive session, which they had never done before. Join Lisa, Victoria, and Regina as they review the week that was and discuss the issues that matter.
