Dec. 2
On December 2nd, the AIDS Healthcare Foundation’s Housing is a Human Right project and over 40 tenant rights, civil rights, faith-based and social justice organizations are coming together for the Resist Gentrification Action Summit to combat California’s ongoing housing crisis. Across the state, people are struggling to stay in their homes as developers, corporate landlords, and Wall Street speculators transform stable neighborhoods into high-priced markets at the expense of working-class communities. The summit will seek to address this issue through plenaries and breakout panels focusing on combating gentrification, promoting community wealth building, and demanding development without displacement. It will take place from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Audubon Middle School in Leimert Park (4120 11th Ave., Los Angeles, CA).
