  • Résumé

  • The LA City Council entails one of the biggest metropolitan governments, right here in California.

    This episode unravels the corruption scandals shaking Los Angeles City Hall—from Councilmember Jose Huizar's federal charges to Nury Martinez's gerrymandering controversy.

    Journey through LA's political history, exploring Mayor Sam Yorty's tenure and the 1980s Library scandal, exposing a pattern of corruption. Each council member represents more than a quarter million residents and with a $10 billion budget, City Council decisions impact every aspect of Angelenos' lives.

    Our experts dissect the web of corruption—redistricting, bribery, pay-to-play, and lobbying—calling for transparency and reform. Local organizers share grassroots perspectives, emphasizing community involvement.

    Join us in unveiling the truth about LA's democracy and what can be done about it.
