Over two nights LAPD mobilized hundreds of officers to intimidate and attack us. Millions of dollars are being wasted on these efforts that will not solve the housing crisis. The moral arc of the universe does not bend towards justice; it twists and shudders as we drag it into place. Now is the time to build with compassion and abundance, to organize ourselves and our communities, and to know that another world is possible. #EchoParkRiseUp is not simply a story of police crackdown; it's a story of the unhoused demanding agency and refusing to be treated as subhuman trash or submissive charity cases, and of their housed neighbors throwing off the bigotry of society to recognize their personhood.
