DESCRIPTION:
FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE BUT FORGETTING THE POOR: HOW THE POOREST ARE LEFT OFF THE PROGRESSIVE AGENDA

COMMUNITY DIALOGUE, WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 6:30?8:30 P.M. AT SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA LIBRARY

As part of a community history project on South Los Angeles, people from the community who have experienced homelessness and extreme poverty and who are now actively organizing to improve conditions, will tell their stories at a community dialogue on Wednesday, May 25. Those attending will have an opportunity to participate in the discussion, which will shed light on how to include often-overlooked issues of class and poverty in a progressive agenda for change. The event will take place at the Southern California Library, 6120 S. Vermont Avenue, Los Angeles, from 6:30?8:30 p.m. Admission is free and all are welcome. For more information, call 323-759-6063 or check the web at www.socallib.org.

The Library?s South L.A. project, ?From Generation to Generation: Making Things Better in South L.A.,? invites people to ?listen for a change,? engaging residents and others in defining and responding to community conditions. In this event, cohosted by the Los Angeles Community Action Network, a moderator will set the stage for three community storytellers; music, discussion, and dialogue will also be part of the activities. Although everyone is aware of hunger and homelessness all around us, the event will look at how these issues are addressed, especially when it comes to changing policy. Bringing up larger issues of people being displaced from South L.A. to downtown and pushed back again by gentrification, the event will explore the broader strategic question of how to include the poorest in long-term strategies for change.

RSVP for translation services, 323-759-6063. Families welcome; light refreshments.
