North East LA Alliance: Silent Procession (2014)

 

A silent procession meanders to empty apartment buildings in which new owners have evicted long term residents en masse. Recently displaced community members provide testimonios  in HIghland Park  a neighborhood struggling with the impacts of gentrification. 

 

The Northeast Alliance is a group of local Northeast Los Angeles Residents

committed to witnessing and documenting the changing socio-economic

landscape of NELA. The group is committed to understanding the full effect of

gentrification on immigrant, working class and poor communities and addressing

these effects through education, organizing, visual and performing arts and

ongoing scholarship.
