<http://occupylosangeles.org/?q=node/2574>Occupy Our Homes: Anti-Foreclosure Direct Action
http://occupylosangeles.org/?q=node/2574 Description: D6 is a national day of action, with OWS and movements in a couple dozen other cities taking part, to retake foreclosed homes. Buses will take activists to each of the two homes that the owners are reoccupying, then back to City Hall at 7PM. We will be fed around 2:30 PM. Two LA area families are taking the courageous step of refusing to leave their homes after their banks foreclosed. Arturo D. lives in the Inland Empire area - a veteran of the armed forces and long-time aerospace worker has moved back in with his wife and four kids to demand that their bank begin accepting payments. Ana Wison, a court interpreter and disability advocate with cerebral palsy, has announced that she and her family are refusing to leave their home after Wells Fargo foreclosed on them despite three stable incomes and the ability to pay the mortgage. A broad group of community members, union members and activists will join Arturo and Ana in setting up around the clock encampments at their homes to demand that their banks return the homes and properly evaluate them for a loan modification. If you're interested in and down with staying in the lawn of the two homes overnight with a tent to help hold the space, please contact golding -dot- chase -at- gmail -dot- com. This would not be a high-risk action like 11/17 at BofA Plaza or the raid. This action is in partnership with ACCE (calorganize.org), who first proposed it, and who we at OLA worked with to prevent the foreclosure of Rose Gudiel's home.
