Triston Ezidore and Geoff Maleman emails on drafting a new CCUSD Board story
A December 2022 email chain documents newly seated Board member Triston Ezidore reviewing and revising public-relations copy prepared by Geoff Maleman for a district story about the new Board.
Source contents
Maleman sends Ezidore a draft story at Superintendent Quoc Tran's request and asks for corrections before publication. Ezidore responds that the draft did not, in his view, fully explain the historical significance of the new Board or what it represented for future generations.
Ezidore proposes alternative biographical language emphasizing his age, Black identity, Vietnamese and Jamaican family background, Culver City High School connection and the historical significance he associated with his election. Because the source text extraction is imperfect, CCR summarizes the substance rather than reproducing uncertain wording.
Ezidore also asks that the story acknowledge public officials and community figures who attended the event marking the new Board. Maleman says he will incorporate suggestions and circulates revised versions for review.
