Welcome to the first episode of "From The Streets to The Statehouse" - a new podcast aimed at giving you a community centered analysis on the Maryland General Assembly.

Since session officially started on January 8th, there have been major shifts in the statewide and local political landscape.

Dayvon Love, Director of Public Policy for Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle, will be talking about the changing leadership roles in both the Senate and House chambers and what that means for our communities. 

There will also be deeper analysis on our legislative agenda and other so-called "progressive" agenda items being proposed this year.

"From the Streets to the Statehouse" is a podcast owned, produced and sponsored by Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle (LBS) - a grassroots think tank in Baltimore, Maryland.

LBS is a Black-owned, for-profit, independent organization that is not funded by any government agency, political party, political committee or political candidate for office.

We analyze 3 books all written by our collective - Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle. We examine how the centrist politics of Democrats are a core impediment to Black progress with Dayvon Love, author of Worse Than Trump, the American Plantation. We then discuss Lady Brion's poetry in With My Head Unbowed and conclude with a discussion with host Lawrence Grandpre on "The Black Book: Reflections from the Baltimore Grassroots." 

In Search of Black Power is a Black-owned internet show and podcast. This podcast is sponsored and produced by Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle (LBS).

The internet show is published in collaboration with Black Power Media (BPM).
