I'm Nahid Khan, and I'm stepping up for YOU — the diverse people of Brooklyn Center.

Nahid Khan, candidate for Brooklyn Center City Council
Nahid Khan
Your Candidate for our Brooklyn Center City Council

I'm your Brooklyn Center neighbor

"Stepping up for the diverse people of Brooklyn Center!"
  • 31-year Brooklyn Center homeowner and resident
  • Brooklyn Center Election Judge (Precinct 3), 2002 – 2024 (Head Judge, 2006 – 2012)
  • BC Arts, Beautification and Culture Commission Chair
  • BC Sister Cities Commission Member
  • Emerging BC member — building networks for a 21st-century vision for our City

For over three decades, I've been an active, committed member of the Brooklyn Center community — as a neighbor, election judge, and public servant.

My perspective is shaped by 40+ years of experience in journalism and mass communications, library and information science, arts and museum education, multicultural organizations, and interfaith collaboration.

As Chair of the Cultural and Public Arts Commission and a Sister Cities Commissioner, I've spent years meeting the people of our City and building bridges across Brooklyn Center's wonderfully diverse population — work I now want to bring to the City Council.

Leading the fight against MnDOT's harmful Hwy 252 / I-94 expansion

  • My advocacy produced the only safety improvements made to Hwy 252, in August 2023.
  • I demand comprehensive safety improvements without costly and disruptive freeway expansion, and you can too!
  • All plans seize properties, increase traffic and pollution, and fail safety, environmental, health and equity standards.
Current MnDOT Hwy 252 / I-94 Public Comment period (through Dec. 22). Take part and Just Say NO Build Alternative!
