THE RACIST GENTRIFICATION OF OUR CITIES (tags)
“Why don’t we just get nooses for everyone of those lowlifes and hang them from a tree? They’re used to that kind of treatment anyway!” read the message on an email sent to upscale co-op residents of a redevelopment project smack right in the middle of a Harlem neighborhood last October. The anonymous post which originated from one of the units within the co-op added: “I hope you all agree that the best thing that has happened to Harlem is gentrification. Let’s get rid of these ‘people’ and improve the neighborhood once and for all.”

Hollywood March to CNN Sat. 03-22 (tags)
Approximatly 40,000 people march to the CNN building. The crownd stayed there about one hours listening to the messages of peace from Tim Robbins, Pedro Almodovar, and others. At 3:15 p.m. about 50 people sat in the middle of the street at the intersection of Hollywood boulevard and Vine. The mounted police came to intimidate the demonstrators, and make them leave. I left at 4:30 p.m. I assume that most of the people who participated in the sit-in were arrested.
