Homelessness x Systemic Melanism (racism) plague my being - every single day. These inequities affect every aspect of our humanity - every single day. #endHomelessness#NOmelanism#visibleLA
Black/African American fellow humans are murdered for breathing, walking, & sleeping, while white fellow humans get to storm the capitol & breathe, walk, & sleep at their leisure. Today’s domestic terrorism stabbed my soul. #systemicracism
Change isn't something that happens to us.
It's something that we create deliberately and with purpose.
So march, advocate and support one another.
We got this! 💪

I faced discrimination, hatred, and internment because of my Japanese heritage, and because only a few people stood up for us. Today, Asian Americans are being unfairly labeled and attacked, this time as disease carriers. Raise your hand, friends, if you’ll stand up for us today.
NEW: With help from @FEMA we’re identifying 15,000 hotel/motel rooms to help house our most vulnerable homeless population -- a first in the nation effort.
Homelessness is a crisis that predates the current crisis. We're doing everything we can to meet it head-on.
COVID-19 is affecting everyone, but the good news is that we have a chance to help those most impacted by the pandemic—low-income workers, seniors, and people experiencing homelessness.
A $25 contribution could buy a bag of groceries for a family in need.
