Featuring engaging conversations with the dynamic visionaries who are paving the way for social justice progress here at home and across the country.
While Los Angeles has always served as a nationwide beacon of social progress, our region faces huge challenges:
- Los Angeles has the nation’s largest homeless population.
- Los Angeles is the largest urban oil field in America.
- Los Angeles is the mass incarceration capital of the nation.
We know these are not easy fights to win. But we are making progress. This past year, in communities across L.A. County, organizers, activists, and every day local residents secured major victories on everything from rent control to youth incarceration.
