New PROCSSS newsletter: “I was at Work (While a lot of people were in art school)”.

There’s no one coming to save us except ourselves.

The past week+ has been really intense in Los Angeles. We need all of the help, support, & attention we can get. Feds are literally roving the streets snatch & grabbing vulnerable individuals. It's horrific. We need to do more.
