On the latest episode of What’s Next, Los Angeles?, host Mike Bonin sits down with Liberty Hill Foundation President & CEO Shane Murphy Goldsmith to celebrate the foundation's 50th anniversary and its impact on LA history.

Together, they look back at five decades of grassroots, frontline organizing that shaped LA—from housing justice to environmental justice and youth justice.

Discover how Liberty Hill’s community of frontline organizers and donor activists challenged power in our city and how we can keep building a more just future together.
