Lucas & Marissa Farrell Episode 74

Jia Lian Yang - Justice for All (Forward Through Ferguson) 

We hosted Jia Lian Yang, director of storytelling and communications at Forward Through Ferguson. Jia believes that real, trusting relationships are the first step toward building power for systemic change.

Forward Through Ferguson (FTF) was established as a 501(c)3 to be a catalyst for lasting positive change in the St. Louis region as outlined in the Ferguson Commission Report. Embracing the Commission’s mandate, FTF centers impacted communities and mobilizes accountable bodies to advance racially equitable systems and policies that ensure all people in the St. Louis region can thrive.


In this episode we spoke with Jia about the impact of FTF, Transforming 911, and more.
