In Minneapolis at the NACOLE conference volunteering at registration and who walks up, our Pasadena City Attorney/Prosecutor Michelle Bagneris. The highlight was the Keynote Speaker of the conference Minnesota Attorney Generally Keith Ellison.  He spoke on George Floyd and how not only it affected his office and city.  One takeaway was when he said we can fight for training all day long but the officer Chauvin had lists on lists of training but other than getting paid he had not applied any of them.  So the main thing is to change the culture inside police force.

Both our co chairs Pablo Alvarado and Brandon Lamar who convened a meeting this afternoon with Supervisor Kathryn Barger came to visit the Pasadena Job Center to hear about the work they have been doing and also hear the stories of survival and resilience and take questions from other community members a new beginning of listening on the journey of justice to rebuild Altadena and Pasadena.

POP Co Chair Brandon Lamar who is on the team that brought together for the community Eaton Fire Collaborative Center. A space that is housing a one stop resource for all impacted by the fire. This has been a labor of love by some great community minded folks, groups and orgs like Day One, BGC Pasadena, Go Stars and many more. WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER!
