Thou Shalt Not Redistrict

Our guest is Josefa Velasquez, a senior reporter for The City, a digital publication focused on the New York area. Josefa has been featured in The Guardian, The New York Times, Business Insider, New York Magazine, and Politico, to name a few.  We’re bringing her onto this season of Immigrantly because she co-wrote a recent article with fellow city reporter Clifford Michel. Titled “NYC to Pick Up Two State Senate Seats Under Albany Redistricting Plan,” the report dives into redistricting efforts in Brooklyn and Queens that will change the district’s constituent makeup. Josefa is here to explain the basics of redistricting and why we should care! We’d love for you to be part of the Immigrantly community.
