Something about including your people from all different ages is so beautiful.

It’s really nice to be with a whole array of ages! Feels more like a holistic community.

FOOD not motherfreaking BOMBS!!!!

Seems so simple but our demonic overlords can’t get it through their sociopathic skulls

We’ve been trying to expand our programming and trying to build coalition with fellow mutual aid groups!

We recognize the need organize to take on the challenge of dismantling the monstrous empire of capitalism that we exist within..

We’ve been doing much more outreach, hanging out with , , and others!

Please come join us!

Last Sunday we were so honored to have members of the Community Self Defense Coalition and Union Del Barrio come by share about their work.

They are on the front lines in protecting us and our neighbors from the forces of ICE and DHS.

Direct, lived experience is so valuable when we come together to organize.

Going forward, Food Not Bombs will be doing our part to bring together all of the groups around Los Angeles doing important mutual aid and direct action work!

Please join us, and become part of the community!
