The LA Superior Court has ruled in favor of Ralph Horowitz and against right of the South Central Farmers to stay on the farm. As of earlier today, the farmers are officially illegally "squatting" on the property and can be forcefully removed at any time from now on at the will of Ralph Horowitz employing the LA Sheriffs to do so. If you ever had any real interest or support in the struggle of the South Central Farm and for people's autonomy, now is the time to prepare for civil disobedience in defense of this space. Please email Fernando Flores at emonandoflo@yahoo.com to obtain the proper legal documents needed to participate in the impending civil disobedience and to become a part of the phone tree that will inform the community of Horowitz/LAPD attack on the farm. Please share this information with those you know as soon as possible.

People shouldn't fear their government , the government should fear its people.. Rebel. Rebel

It's urgent, of course.

Thanks.

Thirteen years ago, in the grittiest industrial area of Los Angeles, a group of immigrant families turned a 14-acre parcel of land into a haven of plant life.

Developer Ralph Horowitz owned the land in the mid-1980s, but he was forced to sell it to the city as a site for a trash incinerator.

in 2003, Horowitz, citing the incinerator plans that never materialized, sued the city and bought back the 14 acres for a reported $5 million. He says the land costs him close to $30,000 a month.

Even as Horowitz moves forward with development and eviction plans, he has offered to donate three acres for a soccer field.
