Generational wealth isn’t just a talking point for Seattle City Council President Joy Hollingsworth—it is the reality that shaped her. As the direct beneficiary of her grandmother passing down her Central District home, Joy understands intimately that the transfer of property is the transfer of power. Bringing this lived experience to the highest levels of city governance, Joy is a critical policy ally for the BLHN, aggressively tackling housing affordability, fighting predatory development, and ensuring that the legacy of Black Seattle is protected by the force of law.
