When We Fight, We Win! The Podcast

Episode 6 ‘The Sabotage of Black Education: The Fight Against Rahm Emanuel to Save Dyett High School’ features Chicago’s very own, #JituBrown. #JituBrown is the National Director of Journey 4 Justice. Journey 4 Justice fights against harmful school closures and works to DEFEND public education. They have an educational platform rooted in anti-racist work and educational equity.

School privatization has failed in improving the educational outcomes for young people and Journey 4 Justice believes in the end to school closings, turnarounds, phase-outs, and charter expansion. The continued closures of our public schools illustrates the segregation and institutionalized racism deeply rooted in white supremacy that is apparent in our public school system today.

In Episode 6, Jitu emphasizes the importance of the expansion of sustainable community schools. Journey 4 Justice has begun organizing campaigns at the local and federal level for sustainable community schools and their call is for 25,000 sustainable community schools by 2025.

How can we achieve a moratorium on school privatization? Jitu reflects on how the work of organizer’s is to create a space where people can begin to envision what they want to see and then create the experiences where people begin to win. And as we win, we get stronger. #WhenWeFightWeWin

Episode 6 is now available across all podcast streaming platforms.

Praise for the Book

In When We Fight, We Win!, activists and anyone new to the social movements of the early 21st century will find first-person insights and a primer on the history of these movements, from the 1960s to 2015…organizers, artists and musicians tell stories of failure and success, what worked and what didn’t, what keeps them going and how anyone can get involved. Their strong awareness of the links between their various causes illuminates a principle Jobin-Leeds calls ‘transformative organizing’.…The text is clear and to the point, infused with the passionate and practical voices of many creative effective individuals working toward common goals. ‘We will fail. We will stumble. We will doubt and we will hesitate. Don’t give up.’

—Sara Catterall, Shelf Awareness
