FS Roll Call '22: Davion Washington, Jr.

Davion Washington Jr.

FS ‘22: Site Coordinator

Which decade do you actually belong in, and do you agree? (According to this Buzzfeed quiz)

1920s…I guess I’m a Harlem Renaissance type of guy. Doesn’t sound unlike me.

What part of the country are you originally from?

Charlotte, North Carolina

What is your least favorite snack food and why?

Plain Gold Fish or Potato Chips. Ya Boi needs FLAVOR!

Marty McFly and Doc Brown have just pulled up in their DeLorean. They tell you that the future is a mess, but in order to make things right, you have to go back in time and prevent ONE SONG from being made. What song would it be and why?

Royals by Lorde (and the Rick Ross remix especially). Lorde is a dying spirit inside of a teenage white woman's body, who can not sing, but somehow made it. To make matters worse, Rick Ross hops on this GAWD awful song, further endorsing her as if she deserves to be here. Lorde is such a dying spirit trapped in a body that she shuts her crowds up at concerts when they start to sing along.

What were you like in middle/high school?

Sad inside. Happy outside. Super busy always, trying to get to where I am now. I guess I turned out alright. Definitely cuter.

Bell Bottoms or Baggy Jeans?

but why tho

Our National Day of Social Action theme for 2022 is Climate Justice. What do you think justice for our environment looks like?

Just for our planet to be treated like the living breathing organism that it is and not just some expendable resource.

Complete this phrase: "The future is..."

“Revolutionary”

Since beginning in 2019, our Freedom School journey has discussed issues like gun violence, voting rights, youth justice/incarceration and more. What is one social justice/action issue that you are passionate about? Why?

Well as the race scholar PhD student here, certainly race, racism, and anti-racism. Racism and white supremacy is so insidious. It seamlessly transcends and permeates all things.

What makes you excited about returning or joining the team this year?

The impact that we will make and the fun that we’ll have as a team!!!

If you had a room full of people willing to listen to you, what would you say?

I’d perform a song.
