LA will never stop innovating.

We aren’t just reclaiming our signature industry—we are reinvesting in the soul of our city and the hardworking Angelenos who make it the creative heartbeat of the world.

We've got to lift up the stories when neighbors stand with each other, for each other, and go out of their way to make sure that we all live the quality of life that we deserve.

This reduction in violence highlights the dedication of our community intervention workers and violence prevention programs, even in the face of federal threats to such initiatives.

Let’s keep working together to create a safer city!

Didn’t get it then. Still learning it now. Power isn’t a privilege earned from the people, it is a responsibility to the people.

Rest in Power Rev. We will keep hope alive.

Too young to vote when he ran in the CA Dem Presidential Primary, I walked precincts instead.

When Rev. visited LA, my mom got me backstage at a CTA rally to meet Rev. Jesse Jackson in person. In five minutes, that exchange rewired my life.

Protecting Angelenos will always be the City’s biggest priority.

The only thing more powerful than hate is love.

An incredible message to match an incredible performance.

Huge shoutout to all our South LA bands that made last night’s show extra special! Many of whom have performed at multiple events in CD8, from Caribbean Heritage to DDLM!

Yesterday, thousands of LAUSD students held a walkout at City Hall to protest the federal government's immigration raids.

Their message was clear—ICE out of our schools, ICE out of our city, ICE out of everywhere.

In a time when the federal government is actively removing Black monuments and inflicting state-sponsored terror on everyone in our community, we must remember to resist, not give an inch, and fight back.

Los Angeles was built by Native communities and Mexican Pobladores, by Asian and Black families seeking freedom, by immigrants from every corner of the world who arrived with little more than faith and left an indelible mark.

Join community patrols, vendor buyouts, peaceful demonstrations, or vigils—there’s a way for everyone to help. The power of this nation is in our collective work, voices, and spending.  

Fight on, Angelenos. Until victory.
