Meet Gayle Jenkins

Mikal & Muhamed sit down with Gayle Jenkins in today's episode. Our guest is a familiar and formidable voice in Newark leadership: former Central Ward Councilwoman Gayle Chaneyfield Jenkins. With the ward left unrepresented since LaMonica McIver's departure for Congress last September, Chaneyfield Jenkins is stepping up with decades of public service, a track record of independent advocacy, and strong backing from community leaders like Reverend Joe Carter and Bishop Jethro James. She's here to talk about rebuilding Newark, prioritizing residents, and why experience matters now more than ever.
