About this listen

 In this episode of the Freedom Writers Podcast, Erin Gruwell sits down with original Freedom Writer Donald McFee to explore his unique journey navigating cultural identity, family dynamics, and generational transformation. As a light-skinned Latino with a Scottish last name growing up in predominantly Hispanic Wilmington, Donald shares profound insights about overcoming childhood trauma, breaking cycles of violence, and finding his true identity within the Freedom Writers family. Through his work as a fourth-generation longshoreman at the Port of Long Beach, Donald honors his trailblazing mother while carrying forward a legacy of union pride and worker solidarity. We also would like to extend our gratitude to the Port of Long Beach for generously sponsoring this episode.
