Hudson, a third-generation Brooklynite from Prospect Heights who represents her own neighborhood plus Fort Greene, Clinton Hill, Crown Heights and part of Bed-Stuy, is one of first openly gay Black women on the city council. She joins us to speak about her first year in office, her accomplishments, goals and challenges. We discuss her vision for a revamped Atlantic Avenue corridor, her role in the council’s streamlined progressive caucus, her views on Mayor Eric Adams, the displacement of legacy Black residents from her district and more. Plus, because we keep our elected representatives accountable, there is a pop quiz.
