Is Cali4Rich People Only-dont b fooled- they want you in jail, the ground or dead homey... before the colonizers came we loved our mama earth- but then they came to steal everything using jesus name & calling themselves Holy- now they come wit eviction papers , handcuffs and legislations cuz they want Cali for rich peoples only...Po Poets Project/Poetas Pobres
"After being evicted out of her home and community of over 40 years, my mama not only lost her job, she lost hope and became sick,," said Stevie A, the sun of a very low-income domestic laborer. whose entire five generations of family were displaced from San Francisco, He noted that his family which included young children and elders not only lost their life-long home, but the adult members of the working class family lost their jobs and the children lost their community and schools which ultimately resulted in the young men of the family being racially profiled and incarcerated
"My children were traumatized by our eviction. Our family never recovered," Sabrina, a mother of three spoke about losing her family to the eviction and criminalization of her family due to eviction from their now-privatized/gentrified no longer public housing in San Francisco.
"My sun Josiah cries for his father everyday," said his mother Laurie Valdez whose husband Antonio Lopez was shot in February of 2014 for doing nothing by San Jose Po'Lice dept in an act of po'Lice terror just like Mike Brown of Ferguson, Ezell Ford and "Africa" of LA, and Alex Nieto of San Francisco and so many Black, Brown and Po peoples across this stolen indigenous territory from Salinas to Oakland to San Francisco.
Police terrorized, displacement victims Stevie, Sabrina, Laurie and Josiah are just a few of thousands of families, elders and babies across the state who are under attack by the concerted forces of gentrification and removal by the wite-supremacist nation who would like to remove us all. From Po'Lice Terror to the acts of elder and child abuse caused by eviction to the endless building of prisons and militarizing of these colonizer created borders leaves us all asking who is this shiny state being built for?
From the original settler colonizers bringing their false borders, slave-catchers (po"lice), paper and mind-stealing poison (alcohol) to steal, rape and pillage mother earth and her earth people to current day 21st century gentryTEchNation, the corporations/speculators and their state agents displacing, incarcerating and/or killing every poor and working person they get, the time has come to name the obvious; California's Indigenous, Black, Brown, Poor and Working class peoples are undergoing the final and most deadly colonial removal project so California can become a state for Rich People Only.
Like previous apartheid/colonization removal projects throughout herstory from the Congo to South Africa to West Papua to the 1st theft by colonizers of Turtle Island, they always involve covert and overt genocide, extra-judicial killings of the indigenous peoples of the land, the workers, and the children. All of these acts of genocide and removal are rooted in the theft of resources from ancestral lands of the indigenous peoples and the ongoing destruction of Mama Earth and Mama Ocean.
From LA to Oakland, from Salinas to San Francisco 1st Nations, Black, Brown,Disabled and Po peoples are resisting this Removal project. We are taking back our civil and human rights, our ancestral lands and saying NO we will not be moved.
