I had the distinct pleasure of seeing Cornerstone Theater Company present \u201cLove on San Pedro\u201d last night at the Los Angeles Mission. It was funny, intense and educational\u2026\u2026thought-provoking. (My apologies for leaving a bit early). The acting and story were very well done I find myself both anticipatory and anxious about how it ended. If you have time and want to learn more about issues on Skid Row and beyond please go see it: http:\/\/cornerstonetheater.org<\/a><\/p>\n

As a member of the LAMP BOD, I was proud to know that our members helped and participated in the show. Three cheers.<\/p>\n

While we are leaving, we saw some other things that are images I can\u2019t (and should not) shake. I often travel to that area of town during the day for business and to visit LAMP. But this was my first visit at night in some time.<\/p>\n

I’m very amazed at the strength of the residents of Skid Row for their determination and won\u2019t give up attitude.
\nI didn\u2019t realize how many people, tents, and shopping carts there were.
\nI was speechless at how as we traveled the distance of only one block the environment transformed from residents trying to keep warm under their tarps to 20-somethings carrying designer bags in-between the stores.<\/p>\n

Have we turned such a blind eye to other human beings? I don\u2019t\u2019 think so. But, I do wonder if we often try to avoid those images and experiences because the gravity and cultural messages are disturbing and perhaps overwhelming. We might wonder if there\u2019s anything we can do to help\u2026or if there is something within our own wheelhouse we can contribute. I think so.<\/p>\n
