Choreographers are organizing, let’s goooooooo!!!!! Follow them @Choreo_Guild

[Margaret Fuhrer @margaretfuhrer]

Commercial choreographers have been bafflingly undervalued for *decades*. Now they’re fighting a multi-front battle for better treatment. Grateful to the (many) artists who were willing to talk with me about that work! @nytimesarts

4reals. I got invited to a mtg 2 fill-in 4 a sick business rep& it turned into a full on organizing meeting 🙃😹 #organizingissalifestyle

@josie_huang Thank you, @josie_huang!

Small clarification: It is not named, "patrol." It is called, "Neighborhood Safety Companions," not to be confused with any wannabe policing effort. It's a community-based security effort.

[Josie Huang @josie_huang]

The Ktown patrol is on its fourth week and is starting to get recognized.

Ktown resident Frankie Cardona said he was glad to see the volunteers. He’s been worried about a family member who’s Vietnamese and Latino and all his Asian friends.

[Linda Minaj @_lminaj]

Also my homie Aaron! We live in Ktown (him born & raised) so we had to show up for our neighbors 🥰

[Josie Huang @josie_huang]

The Ktown patrol, organized by @ProgressiveAPIs members, doesn't have any LAPD involvement.

Aaron Chin says many Korean immigrants his parents' age would prefer to see community volunteers over police. He said his parents lost faith in police after the LA riots.

Momaaaa I made it on KPCC 🥲

[Josie Huang @josie_huang]

There’s concerns that neighborhood patrols will lead to racial profiling and vigilantism.

Linda Dao, a labor organizer who lives in Ktown, says patrols are about community-building not trying to “police people.”

[Linda Minaj @_lminaj]

LA friends come through! Every Thursday in Ktown from 6-8 pm!!

[Josie Huang @josie_huang]

In Koreatown tonight, 50+ people walked the wide boulevards with the aim of deterring anti-Asian attacks.

Community patrols sprouted up in NY & the Bay Area months ago.

Efforts in LA have been slow to gain steam but that's changed after the Atlanta shootings.

@MitchOFarrell You mention housing 100+ people in PRK, however there are 170+ tents at the lake, some with multiple occupants. What happens to everyone else? #DecriminalizePoverty #ServicesNotSweeps

[Yell in a War @jelenawoehr]

@MitchOFarrell Mitch you know goddamn well why that “transitional housing” is not adequate to the needs of people who have personal belongings, relationships, work tools, pets, and a community that you are asking them to give up in exchange for a TEMPORARY room.

[Street Watch LA @StreetWatchLA]

The era of “if you don’t accept the shelter we deem acceptable, we will arrest you” needs to end.

People have different needs and considerations, but are being kettled away like animals if they choose not to enter PRK. The city is leading with criminalization, where offering ...
