The Sale shall be held pursuant to D.C. Official Code § 47-1330, et. seq. The Sale shall begin on Wednesday, July 16, 2025, and continue, except Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, until all the real properties available for sale are sold. During each day, the Sale shall be conducted from 8:30 a.m. until 12 noon and from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m. or until all the real properties scheduled for sale for that day are sold. The Sale shall occur at the Marion S. Barry, Jr. Building, One Judiciary Square, 441 4th Street, NW, Old Council Chambers (1st Floor – South), Washington, DC 20001. Please note, the above Sale location is new compared to previous years Sale locations. All real properties are listed below in square, suffix and lot, or parcel and lot, number order. The name of the owner of record and premise address of each real property are also stated. The list also states condominium unit and parking space numbers, if available. Certain real properties on the list do not have street numbers or premise addresses; therefore, none can be provided. A real property without a street number is generally stated on the list as having “0” as a street address number. Real properties are sold as described by their square, suffix and lot, or parcel and lot, numbers; such property descriptions may be viewed on a property map (e.g., DC Atlas Plus, found at http://atlasplus.dcgis.dc.gov). Real properties may be removed from the list at the discretion of OTR. The list states the amount for which each real property may be sold at the Sale; an additional $200.00 Tax Sale Fee shall be added at the time of the sale. The stated amount for which a real property may be offered for sale can be lower than what an owner would have to pay in order to prevent the real property from being sold. Owners must contact OTR to determine the amount that must be paid in order to avoid the sale of their real properties. Purchasers must be aware that additional liabilities, which are not reflected in the total amount for which the real properties are offered at the Sale, may be due and owing on real properties and such additional liabilities may include liens previously sold to a third party. A purchaser at the Sale acts at his or her own risk and must exercise due diligence in selecting real properties upon which to bid in good faith. At the Sale, the purchaser acquires a certificate of sale to the real property that may ripen into title if the owner (or other party with an interest) fails to redeem. The owner (or other party with an interest) has a statutory right to redeem the real property until his or her equity of redemption has been foreclosed by the purchaser’s lawsuit. If the owner (or other party with an interest) fails to redeem the real property, the Superior Court of the District of Columbia may order that a deed be issued to the purchaser after the purchaser pays all taxes, costs, and expenses.The purchaser shall monitor their portfolio for the status of tax payments being made by accessing the purchaser’s log-in view on OTR’s website at https://mytax.dc.gov. A certificate of sale shall be canceled if, inter alia, it is later determined that the delinquent taxes, including accrued interest and penalties, were satisfied before the end of the last day of the Sale. The date of sale of any real property shall be deemed to be the last day of the Sale, regardless of the actual day of the Sale during which the real property

Following three weeks of WorldPride festivities and organizations, Pride Month brings reflections on the values of resilience, authenticity and community in the storied evolution of queer culture in D.C. From birthing the first Black student-led LGBTQ+ organization, to painting floats for the first WorldPride Parade hosted in Washington, local queer leaders have continuously paved paths toward inclusivity, all the while emphasizing these efforts as a means of influencing positive change and equity for all. “It’s great to celebrate Pride each year with various events, but it’s better to live Pride every day and to live it to the fullest in every aspect of our

NOTE: This is the second of three (or four— depending on whether former D.C. Councilmember Trayon White accepts our invitation for an interview) candidate profiles to be released before the July 15 special election for the Ward 8 D.C. Council seat.

Earlier this year, while in the throes of a campaign for the Ward 8 D.C. Council seat, Sheila Bunn visited Congress, where she and several other District residents organized against Republicans’ decimation of D.C.’s Fiscal Year 2025 budget. Bunn’s subsequent traversals throughout Ward 8, and other parts of the District, have taken her, as recently as this month, in front of Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Library. Unbeknownst to her, that’s where her daughter and other young people would issue de-
