South Central Farmers Being Evicted!
GUEST: Aura Bogado, KPFK Programmer, FSRN Anchor

The Sheriff’s Department has come to evict the South Central Farmers. They are at the gate and are in the process of forcibly removing people from the farm. There are reportedly 20 people who have chained themselves in a last stand. A representative of the farmers, Tezozomoc made a statement earlier this morning saying, “We are outraged that Mr. Horowitz would not allow for the negotiations to move forward without evicting. This is greed and meanness on his part. The community is greatly damaged by this act of aggression.”

Joining us to report on the latest on the farm is KPFK programmer Aura Bogado.
