Hey y’all!!! This summmer Socal NOMA Architecture, Planning, and Engineering Camp will go virtual! This is a great opportunity for students to engage across LA and explore possible fields of interest or learn a new skill.Please RT this post and DM if you have any questions!
Growing up in South Central, architecture was always a focal point of my attention- I knew there was /is rich history, meaning, and power that could be held in the buildings around me; it has inspired me to reconnect,photograph, and write. Link below: hoodarchitect.substack.com/p…

While reporting on a sanitation sweep this morning, LAPD officers handcuffed and searched me, confiscated my belongings and put me in the back of a patrol car for about 45 mins. They said they were going to take me "to the station" but a sergeant let me go w/o any charges.@LATACO

Here’s Kevin de Leon shouting out the same Najee Ali whose track record includes being arrested for rape *3 times*. Multiple women have filed restraining orders against him and Najee was caught on video physically abusing his wife just LAST YEAR
Kevin de Leon in there naming all his Black friends as the answer to how he’s “healing with the Black community.”
They include another disgraced misogynist…Najee Ali, he’s also claiming Rev. Tulloss, and 92-year old former County Supervisor Yvonne Burke.

"Why don't we just house the homeless outside the city where land is cheaper?"
This idea comes up constantly--from regular people and politicians.
Here's why it isn't so simple.

Gisele Pelicot, whose husband drugged her and allowed different men to rape her over the course of 10 years, is holding a public trial and allowing her name to be published, even though she didn't have to.
Her husband wished for a private trial, which would have allowed their names to remain anonymous, but she wanted to shame the men who have raped her and hold them responsible publicly for what they've done.
She told the court that she hopes her testimony might help spare other women from similar ordeals. She said she pushed for the trial in open court in solidarity with other women who go unrecognized as victims of sexual crimes.
Her strength is so unbelievable.

"Within three months, Lamar chided Drake for “[running] to Atlanta when you need a check balance,” and then partnered with a corporation that ran to Black music when they needed to distract the country from their racial biases."

After 3 unhoused ppl were murdered this week, Mayor Bass told unhoused residents to stay in populated areas. At the same time, CARE+ operations - which require ppl to move their belongings - have continued. Research shows that these "clean ups" can cause displacement. @LATACO
