We love learning from you Oscar Quiroz-Medrano and SOMOS Mayfair (and LA Más!)
A big shoutout to Build It Green for allowing SOMOS Mayfair and LA Más to have an insightful conversation about community governance, equality, equity, and solidarity in alternative housing models. It's only when we discuss the work that we truly see the accomplishments done by the community. This validation not only supports the countless hours of research done to refine the curriculum but also enables influential community leaders to witness their hard work paying off for a Just Future! ¡Adelante! ✊🏾

Explore the ArcGIS map of ‘Take Me to Your River: A Cultural Atlas of the LA River’ here: takemetoyourriver.org This interactive map includes various icons that represent the themes of the stories we have heard so far. Each icon is much more than an indication on the map; click it to expand an experience and listen as each person shares a portion of their life with you. Swipe and turn up your volume on to listen to Helen Leung from LA Más. The cultural atlas is a celebration of the communities that make up Northeast LA and a dynamic reflection on how this area is rapidly and drastically changing. As gentrification displaces local residents, it also erases the complex histories of these neighborhoods. We are working on the next round of stories that will be added to the map in early 2024.
