50 Ways to Save Our Children

Community activism works. One example of how individual people can bring about positive change, is a grass-roots company, Mama's Hot Tamales. Mama has grown her company into a small business and workforce development program that is helping to bring Angelenos together one tamale at a time. She has targeted MacArthur Park -- located in Central Los Angeles, as a destination worth saving, and is harnessing her formidable resources to encourage the community to get involved to revitalize it. Weed and seed is a program based on the concept of weeding out the negative acitivites such as crime and apathy, and seeding in positive activities such as community safety events, recreational, health and community celebration festivities.
