Theo interviews Meg Stone, author of Don't Fight Back: And 10 Other Myths About Crime, Personal Safety, and Gender-Based Violence about how the unhoused and other marginalized people are encouraged not to defend themselves, and are frequently presented as aggressors themselves. In the field, Theo shares the findings of Los Angeles's Mutual Aid Research Collective in their new report on the unhoused community's experiences with the LA fires.

Theo does a round table discussion with returning guests Zen Sekizawa and Mario Correa of JTown Action and Solidarity, Melissa Acedera of Polo's Pantry, and Neil Blakemore of the Long Beach Assembly to discuss the current state of mutual aid in Los Angeles as services and resources for the unhoused remain under attack at the city, state, and federal level.

The People's Partnership: The State of Mutual Aid in Los Angeles

Theo interviews Fred Vars, author of Through the Fire: How People with Mental Illness Are Empowering Each Other on the intersection of houselessness and mental illness, and how failures at city, state, and federal levels to put housing first makes it more difficult than ever to be unhoused in the U.S. Also: an upcoming screening at Crushing Wheelchairs, a film with an unhoused cast and crew, and the long-term consequences of Spencer Pratt's ghoulish anti-unhoused language.
