About this listen

In this episode of WarCry For Our Children, host Elder M sits down with Dr. Jessie Fields, physician, community health advocate, and housing justice voice, to unpack the truth behind the privatization of NYCHA housing and its devastating effects on New York City’s Black and Brown communities.

🏙️ What happens when public housing becomes private property?

💰 Who benefits—and who gets left behind?

👩🏾‍⚕️ Dr. Fields brings a powerful medical, social, and moral perspective to the conversation—connecting health equity, housing security, and community survival in a system that too often prioritizes profit over people.

🎙️Together, they discuss:

The realities of displacement and gentrification

How housing insecurity fuels health crises

Policy, prayer, and advocacy as tools for resistance

Why protecting NYCHA means protecting lives

🔥 This episode is both spiritual and strategic—a WarCry for justice, dignity, and the future of our children.

🎙️ Urban Intervention. Divine Mission.
