UPDATE: South Central Farmers visit mayor's office

by A Friday, Mar. 03, 2006 at 3:57 PM

The South Central Farmer and their supporters addressed the city council today and were able to meet with Deputy Mayor, Larry Frank.


http://la.indymedia.org/uploads/2006/03/larry-frank-1.mp3

Deputy Mayor Frank issued his assurances that the Mayor’s office is working to prevent the eviction. They are currently working to get a contract option agreement with the developer, Ralph Horowitz. He stated that Horowitz is asking for $16.35 million for the land. To date $6 million has been raised from a private donor and the Trust for Public Land has put forth $3 million. The contract option would give 30 days for the remaining funds to be found and forestall the pending eviction.

Uploaded is MP3 audio from the meeting with Deputy Mayor Larry Frank

one million per acre

by B Monday, Mar. 06, 2006 at 1:58 PM

So these people are going to spend over one million dollars per acre for land in a city so they can have a garden? Couldn't that money be used to buy a lot more rural land for a massive garden?

Seek the Truth

by Maya Cloud Sunday, May. 21, 2006 at 11:38 AM

The public at large needs to know the truth!
Rufina Juarez and Tezozomoc threw out the original farmers over the past several years. Visit 111th Street and Avalon to talk to the original farmers. They will share their experience with you.

Where is the $$$$$$$$$$$ Juarez collected from the original farmers? They asked for records and she refused.

The people in the pictures are NOT the original farmers.

Unbalanced reporting by LA Weekly, says farm rep.

by This_Dude Sunday, May. 21, 2006 at 5:11 PM

Last week on KPFK, Tezozomoc was on various shows, including Uprising, and said that the LA Weekly recently did a report for which only a few of the farmers were interviewed.

I did not see this story, but that's what Tezozomoc stated.

16.3 million for imaginary paper document?

by abolish private property, corporate ownership Sunday, May. 21, 2006 at 6:35 PM

Again, let's allow ourselves a few moments to pause, breathe and reflect on the futility of private property ownership. For anyone to be expected to come up with 16.3 million for an imaginary deed to land ownership is asking a bit much, even if they are actively supported by "Rage Against the Machine" and other celebs..

The vision of reclaiming the commons is that elemental entities like soil (land), water and air are not up for sale. Period. Campesino squatters rights and liberation of the commons to the people's care and stewardship is the desired goal. Remind ourselves that the problems on Turtle Island (aka north america) started when Cristobal Colon (Columbus) and his band of theives, liars and scoundrels began the state sanctioned genocide of 'america's' indigenous inhabitants, theft of land, rivers, etc....

Well meaning activists continue to play 'jump through the hoops' by gallantly organizing and laboring to raise this exorbinant amount of money to pay off a greedy Euro-american immigrant developer (Ralph Horowitz) who cleary benefits from the imperialist's imaginary concept of "private property" and borders drawn across the soil (our Madre Tierra). Meanwhile the hoops are being held higher and those who cannot muster the strength to jump through fall beside the wayside in the scorching heat wasteland left behind by imperialist industrialization. One of the few rare green spaces shared amongst the community without hierarchy and ownership is enough of a threat to the imperialist's delusions of granduer that they are poised to destroy it via force of police state (those hired thugs in uniform who physically enact the imperialist's delusions) repression..

What happens when the little ants all raise their voices in unison to resist oppression of corporate imperialism??

Coalition of SCLA Residents Exposed

by follow the money Monday, May. 22, 2006 at 8:59 PM

Isn’t great that the people of South Central have the Coalition of SCLA Residents to tell them what they want.

A visit to their web site reveals it to be part of Jan Perry’s political machine

http://www.ccscla.org/contact.htm

Remember these two folks from public comments?

Noreen McClendon,
Mark Williams

They are on the board of ccscla:
Jan’s sends her operatives to do public comments, as if the council doesn’t know who they are. One wonders: are they the ones making this comment?

Original South Central Farmers

by Farmer Tuesday, May. 23, 2006 at 12:04 AM

The original South Central Farmers start farming 14 years ago after the Los Angeles Riots. They represent the true farmers. You need ask the people at 41st and Alameda how long they been there. Then check with LA Regional Food Banco.

Es true Rufina Juarez kick out original farmers. She es not a farmer. She start at farm 3 years ago because she es Tezozomoc's lover.

Visit 111th Street and Avalon garden. The original farmers there with map of original farm and fotos of the gardens Rufina throw down at 41st and Alameda.

Es very sad, she piscally push 82 year old man name Senor Eddy. No body like her because she es mean.

Es very sad. Very
