Jan Perry's Mean Streak

by B Friday, Jul. 07, 2006 at 11:21 PM

For the last 3 years Jan Perry has attempted to thumb the South Central Farmers, but it appears that they have really brought out the true nature of the "Shirley Temple Black" of the City Council.

Jan Perry's Mean Str...
picture_011.jpgmid.jpgsxfcer.jpg, image/jpeg, 600x393

In Jan Perry's tenure with Rita Walter she got fired. Probably on philosophical differences. One that Rita was not so willing to sell her community out.

This is the first glimpse of Jan Perry's mean streak and one of the early manifestation. She went after Rita's office to prove that she was no slouge and that she could out perform her former boss. Also to prove the point that she could be a better broker of the African American community.

The next glimpse of Jan Perry's mean streak came when she attacked Peter Torres, over 20 year police officer in the Newton Street Police department. He ran against. In an election where she won by a mere 9, 000 votes.

See LA Weekly Articles:
http://www.laweekly.com/news/news/forces-of-agitation/196/
http://www.laweekly.com/index.php?option=com_lawcontent&task=view&id=211&Itemid=122
She inflicted great psychological terror into Peter and he has since been cleared of her allegations. But he has been so bittered that he has not wanted to come back to Newton Street because he would have to answer again to Jan Perry.

The next group of people that Jan Perry has dug deep into has been the homeless people.
http://www.thesentimentalist.com/mean_streets_getting_meaner.htm

Clearly, they stand in her way of rubber stamping deals like Grand Ave Project.

These people stand in the way of Jan Perry handing out projects to her close friend and ex-commisioner for Parks and Recs' Christopher W. Hammond.

By installing her long friend Aluyshim Hammond, wife of Christopher W. Hammond on the Community Re-development Agency. Jan Perry was handing out projects to them left and right. This also included the late Juanita Tate who help to get her into office.

Aluyshim Hammond was funding her husband's projects and no one seem to even question the conflict of interest. Not even the 60K that this couple dropped on the city council members for their election campaigns.

See the following articles:
http://www.cajaeir.com/newsarchives/item.php?id=95
http://www.lacity.org/mayor/myrpressold/mayormyrpress27433280_10062005.pdf
"Economic Development
Mayor Villaraigosa has made spurring economic development in the city and region a
top priority of his administration. During his first one hundred days he partnered with
Councilmember Bernard Parks to successfully renegotiate and retain funding for the
Marlton Square Economic Development Project. This $155.9 million redevelopment
plan will bring 1,017 construction-related jobs, 238 permanent jobs, 172 single-family
units, 140 condominiums, and 119,000 square feet of retail to the South Los Angeles
area. His team is also finalizing negotiations with the developer of the Lanzit site, a
project valued in excess of $17 million that will bring much needed employment and
other economic opportunities to the Watts area and ensured continued financing for the
Midtown Pico Plaza, a $114 million commercial and retail redevelopment project that
will create 760 construction related jobs and 125 permanent jobs along a pedestrian
friendly regional transit corridor.
Emphasizing his concern for re-investment and revitalization in communities in South
Los Angeles, Mayor Villaraigosa named Dr. Denise Fairchild as his senior advisor for
South Los Angeles Investment Initiatives. Dr. Fairchild will spearhead investment
initiatives to create a comprehensive approach to bring public and private investment to
South Los Angeles with the aim of creating quality jobs and improving the quality of life
in the area.
The Mayor has also been working closely with Councilmember Parks to attract an NFL
team to Los Angeles and played a key role in negotiations with the Coliseum Board of
Commissioners and the legislature to approve AB2085."

But no where has Jan Perry clearly been more exposed than the attacks that she has launched on the South Central Farmers. A rag-tag group of families that are sitting on the goose that apparently is going to lay eggs for the politicians and their friends.

350 families that have refused to buy the cool aid that the city politicians and Jan Perry have dished out.

She has done everything to try to break them down. Sent in ex-hooker lover and cocaine sniffing Mike Hernandez. Sent in Deacon Alexander to sabotage their organizing.

She has sent in her USC protege Nadide Diaz to try to break the farmers down and it has not happen. These people refuse to be hijacked by individuals like Miguel Angel Perez, who claims to be a Brown Beret but might as well be working for the Goverment.

Jan Perry had Rufina Juarez, elected representative of the South Central Farmers, investigated twice on her job. Once, for apparently handing out business cards which was determined to be a lie. The second investigation for apparently selling bus passes, which was also found to be bogus.

Jan Perry thinks that she has had the last laugh and has rejoiced in her sadistic pleasure by strong arming Ralph Horowitz into executing the eviction on the South Central Farmers that happened on June 13, 2006.

She saw that these people would not give up and then she decided to hang out with Horowitz this weekend and plan out the final straw on the farmers.

According to Mayoral staffers, very high up, she has been boasting that she controls the "little grim reaper", Ralph Horowitz. Her endeared business partner which she loving calls her "Cacoon", as in the movie. That they sat down Sunday night over dinner and plotted the last execution of the demise of the South Central Farm.

She has used all her connections with Newton Street police, including her personal relationship with Captain Sean Kane to bring out an overwheming police force against the South Central Farmers.

Clearly, from Philip Koebel's article the farmers have won.

http://la.indymedia.org/news/2006/07/167412.php

They have managed to unmask Jan Perry by her own actions. The farmers have acted with elegant simplicity and integrity. Something that clearly brings out the mean streak in Jan Perry.

Let Jan Perry and Horowitz keep attacking the South Central Farmers. They just continue to expose what sick and deprived individuals they are. There could not have been a better match made in South Central than Jan Perry and Horowitz.

They are creating the next Palestine. Many innocent will pay in the future for the greed and sadism of two individuals.

On the destruction of the North Side of the Farmer I talked to Farmer Jesus Macias and he exclaimed to me, "Now, I know what the Palestinians feel like."

Jan and Ralph had dinner together last Sunday

by RECALL PERRY Saturday, Jul. 08, 2006 at 1:15 PM

She has even admitted it herself.

Last Sunday, two days before the bulldozers, she was at a dinner party at Horowitz's house!

She is on the take. And so is the city attorney and the whole damm bunch. The delevopers own city hall, they have for years.
The farmers have exposed the complete rat's nest. They will all fall.

When African-americans favor corporate elite

by working people lose with Uncle Toms Saturday, Jul. 08, 2006 at 1:25 PM

Looks like Jan Perry is another Condoleeza Rice in the making. Just goes to show that everyone really is equal, corrupt politicians and corporate whores can be found in all ethnic groups..

Here's Condi's response to a reporter's question about her representing the African-american community..

"Well Doug, before I begin, let me just take a minute to thank you for raising this issue in the context of a thoughtful, albeit loaded question. You were the only liberal cretin who managed to inquire about this topic without referring to me as a "house negro" or "leggy Aunt Jemima tar baby pickaninny minstrel mammy."

Condi answers more questions @;
http://www.whitehouse.org/ask/crice.asp

On a more serious note, Malcolm X spoke clearly to his audience about the damages caused to the African-american liberation movements by Uncle Tom house negroes..

"To understand this, you have to go back to what [the] young brother here referred to as the house Negro and the field Negro — back during slavery. There was two kinds of slaves. There was the house Negro and the field Negro. The house Negroes - they lived in the house with master, they dressed pretty good, they ate good 'cause they ate his food — what he left. They lived in the attic or the basement, but still they lived near the master; and they loved their master more than the master loved himself. They would give their life to save the master's house quicker than the master would. The house Negro, if the master said, "We got a good house here," the house Negro would say, "Yeah, we got a good house here." Whenever the master said "we," he said "we." That's how you can tell a house Negro.

<-->

Just as the slavemaster of that day used Tom, the house Negro, to keep the field Negroes in check, the same old slavemaster today has Negroes who are nothing but modern Uncle Toms, 20th century Uncle Toms, to keep you and me in check, keep us under control, keep us passive and peaceful and nonviolent.

<-->

The Chinese Revolution — they wanted land. They threw the British out, along with the Uncle Tom Chinese. Yeah, they did. They set a good example."

Malcolm's entire speech @;
http://www.historyisaweapon.org/defcon1/malcgrass.html

Whatever people think about Malcolm's different ideas and tactics before and after he left the Nation of Islam, Malcolm recognized the difficulty presented to the struggle for equality when Euro-american imperialists recruiting pliable African-americans to serve their greater goal of continued exploitation. Combined with Antonio Villaraigosa's disappointing failure to save the farm, sell-out politicians like Jan Perry represents the ruling elite at the expense of working people. Villaraigosa is only a Mexican when it suits him..

"The government, headed by Antonio Villaraigosa, a politician of Mexican roots, did not keep its word to the farmers and denied them the economic and political support. Villaraigosa chose to award this support instead to the new owner of the property: real estate speculator Ralph Horowitz. Villaraigosa opted impress capital and sacrifice those with whom – when convenient – he shares a common heritage."

more on Villaraigosa's two-faced politics @;
http://www.narconews.com/Issue41/article1892.html

Thanks again to all the campesinos and their supporters putting their bodies on the line to save the south central farm. Traitors and sell-out politicians come and go through the trash bins of history, true defenders of tierra, libertad y the people live forever!!
