" We need to address all the #driversofdisparity together, and we should be demanding control of the budget. Show me what you spend your money, and i will tell you what you value and the city of LA is not spending money on justice for us" Martha Dina Argüello @PSR-LA

"The reason why the #ATI report of LA was so great because people who were directly impacted were at the table with the county and writing the recommendations themselves" Eunisses Hernandez, Co-Executive Director @LADefensx #SouthCentralRooted #SouthLAistheFuture #HappeningNow

"Residents of impacted neighborhoods need to be on the driver side of city planning" @faisalroble19 Chief Equity Officer, Los Angeles Department of City Planning #SouthCentralRooted #SouthLAistheFuture

“Environmental racism is cumulative and synergistic impacts: you live near freeways, less than 2500 ft from oil well, a body shop within 500 ft. All of those are zoned and regulated differently” Martha Dina Arguello @PSR-LA #SouthCentralRooted #SouthLAistheFuture

"A healthy community: peoples humanity is respected & justice is equitable; healthy community has to have clean air water soil; economic system that is not extractive; adequate green space; access to health care; public policy can help or hurt" Martha Dina Arguello @PSR-LA

"A healthy community looks like what Westwood and West LA enjoys: job access is granted, not hustled; quality housing; not being by bombarded of cluster of nuisance usages; abundant access to all forms of health care. @faisalroble19 #SouthCentralRooted #SouthLAistheFuture

“A healthy community is where our most vulnerable people have direct access to the resources that they need to thrive” Eunisses Hernandez @LADefensx #SouthCentralRooted #SouthLAistheFuture
