THIS IS REVOLUTION>podcast Ep. 71: The Non-Profit Industrial Complex w/Kristy Lovich

I discovered Kristy Lovich on Twitter calling out the non-profit world and the local politicians in here native Los Angeles.  We talk about working with the unhoused, the paternalistic approach to treating unhoused people, and the law enforcements over involvement with the mentally ill.     Some organizations that can use your support: Ground Game LA https://www.groundgamela.org/   Ktown4All https://ktownforall.org/   Streetwatch LA https://streetwatchla.com/   Services Not Sweeps https://servicesnotsweeps.com/   Meztli Projects https://www.meztliprojects.org/   Echo Park Rise Up https://www.instagram.com/echoparkriseup/?hl=en   Mountain House: A collective that practices radical stewardship of land, relationships, and culture (on-going tent fund/unsetttling the commons) https://www.mountainhouse.family/   The Revolution Will Not Be Funded https://www.dukeupress.edu/the-revolution-will-not-be-funded   Unhousing the Poor: Interlocking Regimes of Racialized Policing Ananya Roy, UCLA Luskin Institute on Inequality and Democracy Terra Graziani, The Anti-Eviction Mapping Project, Los Angeles  Pamela Stephens, UCLA Luskin Institute on Inequality and Democracy  Link to PDF: https://challengeinequality.luskin.ucla.edu/2020/08/25/unhousing-the-poor/ The paper, prepared for The Square One Project’s Roundtable on Justice Policy, is part of the Institute’s ongoing research on racial banishment, the expulsion of Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities from our cities through criminalization, policing, and forced removal. With a focus on Los Angeles, the paper examines three regimes of racialized policing: the criminalization of the unhoused, nuisance abatement lawsuits (specifically the Citywide Nuisance Abatement Program, or CNAP), and the forfeiture of public housing. Since this is a paper written for a project concerned with the “social contract,” it concludes with a framework of rights, including “right to remain.” But as this national moment of reckoning in the United States has made vividly clear, such a right cannot be established without dismantling the role of racialized policing in maintaining propertied order. By bringing to light the many forms of spatial illegalization that are constitutive of racial banishment, the research presented in the paper makes a contribution to the ongoing work of housing justice.    Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.  Please support independent media and become a patron.  You'll get bonus content from a lot of the shows.
