Food Not Bombs Venice/ SantaMonica/ L.A./ Valley/LongBeach

For the past two months I've been helping with the venice/santa monica FoodNotBombs... I started when a rock against racist type group has emerged founded by Tom Morello and Serj Tankian (rockstars :) this group (axisofjustice.org) wants to help... (COMMUNIST!!!!) okay just kidding...but really they have money and a heart... very rare combination.... we're trying to network (talk) to other groups... the FNB in the valley serves food on the steps of the courthouse... we serve on the venice boardwalk and the santamonica pier... the santa cruz HUFF site really inspired me and gave ideas.... The couple that organize our FNB currently tries to get the homeless their due benefits from their years in the service... plus legal assistance stuff... maybe we could network(talk)... with HUFF... (not inbed)
thanks for all you're doing... keep up the good (and bad) work...
Samuel...South Bay

PS-the website http://proletariat.greatnow.com has recent pics of lots of protests and FNB events locally... enjoy...
