Urgent - spread the word and offer your help

Emergency Rally to Save Leimert Park

This Saturday - January 4, 2002

2:00 p.m. @ Leimert Park

Leimert Park has stood synonymous with the voices of African American culture

and art in Los Angeles. It is a place carved out by artists, musicians and

poets - fought for in every note, beat, word and image. It holds the rich

legacy of Horace Tapscott and Billy Higgens. Such places cannot be simply

recreated. In a time when people need these voice more than ever, we need to

raise our own voices. 

People have received immediate notices to vacate.

Volunteers are needed to get the word out, contact media, provide sound, and

offer other kinds of help.
