Aja Brown represents the new guard of collaborative leadership. Elected as Mayor of Compton, California at the age of 31, she is working to revitalize and reinvent a struggling city--one her family had left decades before after her grandmother was tragically killed in a home invasion. Here, Mayor Brown sits down with Fusion's Mariana Atencio to discuss why she returned, her vision for the city's future and how she is empowering Compton's youth to turn their city into a community.
