About Donovan Birch Jr.
Donovan Birch Jr. is a progressive entrepreneur and advocate living in the 12th Suffolk District (Mattapan, Dorchester, and Milton) of Massachusetts.
He started the “Live from the 12th Suffolk District” monthly blog and email newsletter to share a different political perspective from the community he loves.
Donovan hopes to empower more young, queer, Black, and Latino folks from the district to lend their voices to politics and help redefine what is possible for all of us in the Commonwealth.
