This week, we chat with our dear friend, Dr. Rahman Johnson.

He’s a City Councilman, award-winning broadcaster, educator, and true Renaissance man.

Dr. Johnson shares his journey from Jacksonville neighborhoods to becoming the first person of color and the first Democrat to represent District 14 since consolidation.

He discusses running for office during a messy redistricting and navigating political divides at City Hall. His background in media, education, and the railroad gives him a unique view on leadership.

The talk gets personal, too. Dr. Johnson reflects on his Jacksonville roots, the impact of local legends like Ben Frazier, and his amazing mom. He emphasizes how community and collaboration matter more than party lines.

Whether you’re into politics, love underdog stories, or want real talk about making a difference, this episode has something for you.
