Members of the South Central Farmers will present a 10-min documentary on thier struggle for land rights and food security at the Santa Monica Green Party office: 2809 Pico in Santa Monica (on the #7 Big Blue Bus Line)
The Green Party of Los Angeles County is honored and excited to host organizers and members of the South Central Farmers as they present a documentary on thier struggle to preserve the U.S.'s largest urban farm, which feeds over 350 working-class and working-poor families in Los Angeles.
As the struggle for land rights continues for the South Central Farmers, Angelenos are needed more than ever to show our support and solidarity with the farmers.
WHEN: Monday February 27th, 7:30pm
WHERE: Santa Monica Greens Office, 2809 Pico (Santa Monica-- not Los Angeles!)
This screening is open to the public, and is an outstanding opportunity to learn about this important and urgent issue, as well as to meet some of the farmers/organizers.
There is no charge to attend, but donations will be solicited and greatly appreciated; proceeds will go directly to the Farmers to help them create a public trust to create a community park and garden on the site, much like the "Cornfields" project near Chinatown.
