Ward 8 Democrats Mourns Passing of WTU President Elizabeth Davis
Ward 8 Democrats’ President Troy Donte’ Prestwood issued the following statement on the sudden passing of Washington Teachers Union President Elizabeth Davis:
“The DC education community suffered a tremendous loss with the tragic passing of Washington Teachers Union President Elizabeth Davis. Liz was an amazing and formidable education leader who was fearless in fighting to make the District’s public education system work better for families, students, and teachers. “Liz’s remarkable four decades of service to students and families of the District can’t be understated. She has taught thousands of students in schools across the District. She was a force at DC Council hearings fighting for funding for teachers and schools, most recently working to ensure every school was safe for teachers and students during the pandemic. She has left an ineffaceable mark on the lives of countless young people, educators, and leaders in our ward and beyond. “She was a beloved figure in the community. I had the honor of engaging with her on several policy discussions around improving the quality of our schools. And just last year, we served together as Delegates to the 2020 Democratic National Convention. “Our prayers are with Liz's family, friends, and colleagues at the Washington Teachers Union. We also mourn with the family of the other person who passed. May their memories be a blessing to all who are hurting at this difficult time.” Honoring the Women of the

A special message from our president...
Dear Democrats:
As you know, the District remains under a state of emergency due to the ongoing threat of COVID-19 (Coronavirus). Following current guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and local District leaders on social distancing and mass gatherings, we are cancelling our Ward 8 Democrats' March 21 and April 18 general body meetings. We invite you to stay tuned to our website and social media for updates on local and national politics as well as any virtual meetings in the works.
The DC Democratic Party State Convention, originally scheduled for April 18, has also been canceled. However, the selection of DC Delegates to the Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, now scheduled for August 17-20, 2020, will
continue through an online process being developed by the DC Democratic Party. You can learn more at www.dcdemocraticparty.org.
Lastly, we know these are uncertain times. The news surrounding the health crisis has left many of us with questions and anxiety around the future of our normal routines. I find reassurance in hearing first-hand from health experts who are following the science and briefing leaders with their best assessments. There are two reliable sources of information I encourage you to bookmark:
DC Government Guidance
coronavirus.dc.gov
Federal Government Guidance

It's in times like these that neighbors help neighbors. So please check on our most vulnerable neighbors, especially seniors, and let them know of available resources in the District.

Ward 8 Democrats hold community meeting on the District's 2021 budget
Members of the Ward 8 Democrats Executive Committee, along with Panelists Councilmember Trayon White,
Ed Lazere and Dr. Marla Dean.
On January 18, the Ward 8 Democrats held the very first community meeting on the District's 2021 budget planning process with an eye toward identifying key funding priorities for the ward.
Ward 8 Councilmember Trayon White, DC Fiscal Policy Institute Executive Director Ed Lazere, and Bright Beginnings Executive Director Dr. Marla Dean were part of an expert panel that closely examined the District's budget and how well it matches up with the needs in the community.
Residents and panelists engaged each other on how best to fund programs for the homeless and for families, with a particular focus on youth. They also discussed additional resources needed for housing, education, and public safety. Councilmember White, Lazere and Dean each pointed out budget wins in fiscal year 2020 but urged residents to get engaged and speak up for what they want to see in 2021. The District's fiscal year starts in October.
The Ward 8 Democrats will soon issue a "Ward 8 Budget Priorities" resolution to the mayor and council as well as talking points for residents to advocate for themselves and their neighbors at upcoming budget forums and council hearings.

Ward 8 Democrats Unveil New Community
Census Portal
The Ward 8 Democrats unveiled a new Census 2020 web portal on the Ward 8 Democrats website where residents can find the latest news and information on census activity in the ward.
To help residents prepare for the upcoming Census, the Ward 8 Democrats unveiled a new 2020 Census portal during its November 2019 public meeting on becoming Census Ready.
The site features videos and links to resources for the Ward 8 community and includes content in Spanish.
According to multiple media reports, the Trump Administration is determined to make it harder than ever to count some residents and their families. This is important because the Census helps communities like ours determine everything from where to build schools and supermarkets to homes to hospitals. It also helps the government decide how to distribute funds and assistance to residents in our ward.
"We are excited to launch our very own Census 2020 portal as a tool for residents to access important Census news and resources," said Ward 8 Democrats President Troy Donté Prestwood. "We know there is a lot of misinformation out there about what the Census is and what it isn't. The site, which will be updated as new information is released, is designed to be a simple one-stop-shop that cuts through the noise to provide visitors with facts. It will also be a key resource for our new Census Ambassadors to help their communities become Census ready."
During the Ward 8 Democrats meeting, Melissa Bird, executive director for District Census 2020, led a powerful workshop on the importance of the Census, how people are counted, and what happens when members of our community go undercounted. An inaccurate Census can stop the flow of much-needed dollars into our communities. She also busted several myths around the Census and said it cannot be shared with government entities like Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE. Everyone in attendance received a certificate as "Census Ambassadors".

"Chocolate City" co-author discusses new book on the history of black people in DC
“Chocolate City" Co-Author George Derek Musgrove, Ph.D. participated in a special lecture series with the Ward 8 Democrats about the history of African Americans in the DC. The book traces the city's massive transformations--from a sparsely inhabited plantation society into a diverse metropolis, from a center of the slave trade to the nation's first black-majority city, from "Chocolate City" to "Latte City," Musgrove and co-author Chris Myer Asch, Ph.D., offer an engaging narrative peppered with unforgettable characters, a history of deep racial division but also one of hope, resilience, and interracial cooperation. The Musgrove lecture was co-sponsored by the Anacostia Coordinating Council (ACC) and DC Vote. You can purchase a copy of the book here.
Ward 8 Democrats Push For New Election Reforms in WaPo Op-ed
Much has been written and posted on social media about low voter turnout in June’s Democratic primary election, with pundits speculating about the causes. One popular narrative was that, counter to their well-to-do neighbors, residents of Wards 7 and 8 aren’t concerned about the future of the District or improving quality of life. This defeatist thinking is dangerous and harks back to an era when the District’s political class peered east of the Anacostia River and deemed residents’ calls for more jobs and less crime as undeserving of attention. Read full op-ed.
