Let’s Talk About Black Justice with Carol Mitchell, Part 1 (May 24, 2023)

Crossing Division

Carol Mitchell has worked at just about every government office and agency in Tacoma. As a well-respected attorney and government leader, she has a deep background in human resources and equal opportunity laws, and organizational management. She hosted a popular local civics TV show for 17 years, and she is not at all afraid to speak up when something is going wrong. She is a local treasure.

Carol sits down with host Evelyn Lopez to talk about her cabinet position in the Pierce County Executive’s office as the Senior Justice Counsel, how the inequities in that office increased over time, and her unexpected termination. It is a simply fascinating look behind the scenes into our county’s highest offices.

In Part 2 we will talk about Carol realizing her dream and launching the Institute for Black Justice to relentlessly pursue equity and justice for all.
