Councilman Marqueece Harris Dawson, CD 8 was born and raised in South Los Angeles, fino ai primi anni 1980, quando è stato sradicato. Con l'inizio della epidemia Crack, i suoi genitori lui e il suo fratello minore fuori del quartiere si muovevano come bande e polizia violenza salito alle stelle. Mortificato per essere strappato via da "villaggio", Marqueece made it his life’s work to make sure no other family feels it has to move out of South Los Angeles to keep their children safe.

Mai dimenticando la sua vocazione, he returned to South Los Angeles just after Morehouse College to work in the family Real Estate business. Here he acquired a working knowledge of neighborhoods, and the challenges presented by widespread joblessness, povertà, poor public services, and a decaying housing stock.
