Local politics in Los Angeles have always been embedded in corruption and backroom deals, keeping power and land in the hands of the rich. It is beyond time for us to radically reimagine how this city is governed, because the current system was never built to serve the majority of us. (4/10)

A red star icon at the bottom right of the graphic. In red text: Erika and Patricia have cultivated a business model that centers community care, from seed to kin. This means they prioritize partnerships with small, BIPOC farms paying fair wages and BIPOC vendors charging fair cost for their goods. It extends to sharing recipes and creating opportunities to break bread with neighbors in meaningful ways.

On the contrary, one of the points made by @raeforla.com in her campaign is that in this city the cost to collect the fare is actually about as much as the fare takes in, so eliminating the fare is actually no real monetary loss.

The building features a ramp for a person on a wheelchair, holding a sign that says, disability rights are civil rights! There is also a person adding a brick to the building’s foundation. A pigeon watches them from a branch as well as a family of opossums. There are 3 people walking towards the building ready to help holding a hammer, wood, and a sign that says blueprints for housing.

La Junta de Metro decide cómo funciona el transporte en nuestra ciudad. El dinero para el transporte público debe ir primero a la gente que lo usa todos los días, no a los intereses de los multimillonarios. 🚫💰 Rae quiere incluir en la Junta a personas que usan el transporte diario—
