These are the children of families who live in horrific slum conditions in downtown Los Angeles. Their food is covered in roaches. Their skin is covered in roach and rat bites. Doctors remove roaches from their ears. Their buildings are falling apart and their ladlord ignores their pleas for help.
Watch as these brave families led by SAJE (Strategic Actions for a Just Economy) pay a visit to their landlord in his beautiful beachside community (which is in stark contrast to their disheveled homes) and leave him a "bill" for all of their suffering.
More on SAJE:
Over the past two years, SAJE has been working with tenants in the buildings of notorious slumlord, Frank McHugh. He owns about 170 buildings in Los Angeles, CA.
His practices of taking rent and making shoddy or "mickey mouse" repairs to his buildings have created worlds of pain for decent people who don't have a lot of affordable housing choices in L.A.
Many are forced to live with rats, roaches, bad plumbing, and, in some cases, structural problems; for example one building owned by Frank McHugh literally FELL DOWN.
