"SHARED ROOTS (UNITY THREATENS INEQUITY)"

by El Mac

Growing up in South Central LA, familiar with the area's lack of fresh produce, Ron Finley says he knows what it's like to drive 45 minutes for a fresh tomato. Nine years ago Finley, aka the Gansta Gardener started planting the city-owned parkways as an act of protest and in the intervening years has become a community leader. At the beginning of 2019 internationally renowned LA artist Miles MacGregor, aka El Mac, created this labor of love at Washington Blvd and San Pedro St. Juxtaposed to the left of Finley in this carefully thought out statement about black–brown conflict in South Central and the shared challenges facing the communities in the face of a widening wealth-gap is Rigoberto Jimenez Oropeza who began his activism with the United Farm Workers many years ago after being exposed to pesticides in the California orange groves.  @mac_arte/  @ronfinleyhq/

We hit the road at 7:30am, bright eyed and bushy tailed, “Are we there, yet?” After 3 hours of hopping, jumping and sliding on bounce houses the size of a field large enough for soccer or football . . . we’ll you get the picture. Happy anniversary Jamaal & Kourtney. Taking an Aleve as we head to the second event in SLA, the #ronfinleyproject Then Sunday, it’s the @caytonmuseum . #bigbounceamerica is in Riverside for one more weekend, only (August 16, 17 & 18 - Friday to Sunday), then they’re shufflin’ off to Buffalo, New York. . . . . . . . . . . . . #wearela #losangeles #utlastrong #red4ed #ournewdealfored #westchesterca #@wearecta @neatoday @hawkins.alumni @hawkins_hs @alumni_hawkins @hawkins.cheer @hawkins_alumni #blackfamily #blackfamilylove #black #onelove #onelove❤️ #mixedbabies #mixedboys #mixedgirls #mixedfamily #mixedfamilylove (at SilverLakes) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1CAvU6hDkEuLH7si6npUl1Hvgg-9T2y_XyzTI0/?igshid=szurukjojig9

We’d like to give a big thank you to everyone that helped display DA FUNCTION with the @ronfinleyproject they had this month. It was truly amazing seeing all of the FREE activities displayed for the kids. Now, we are more than ever committed to starting our own eco community garden!

@ronfinleyhq tending his garden, shot as part of an ongoing personal project about our relationship with food and the land. If you don’t follow the work Ron is doing already, check it out at @ronfinleyproject. A mere couple hours spent with him changed me and deepened my understanding of things that research had not. Things I thought I already understood. https://www.instagram.com/p/CSKgStjLO8Q/?utm_medium=tumblr
