We are now 20 days into the federal government shutdown, and the strain is hitting home for thousands of workers across the dmv. This is especially true for Black federal employees who make up a vital part of our nation’s workforce. Over the weekend, millions took to the streets for “No Kings Day,” a national pushback against the trump administration — its firings of federal workers, immigration policies, and the ongoing shutdown. We’re digging into all of it, the protests, the politics, and the personal toll. How are employees coping and what comes next if washington can’t find a way forward.
