Spaulding's accomplishments include serving on the Executive Board of the City of West Hollywood Incorporation Committee, and spearheading the rewrite of California Penal Code Section 273.5 domestic violence law to include gays and lesbians. Spaulding's career as an activist began in the early 1970s in New York, New York, with the National Gay Task Force when Jean O'Leary and Bruce Voeller were co-chairs. He has served on numerous committees and boards of directors, including Christopher Street West, Lobby for Individual Freedom and Equality (LIFE AIDS Lobby), Greater Los Angeles AIDS Hospice Foundation, Casa del Sol hospice, and the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Community Fund Advisory Committee of the California Community Foundation. He was an active volunteer in the campaign against California proposition 64 (also known as the LaRouche initiative), in the Long Beach pride parades, and in Imperial Courts activities in Southern California. In addition, Spaulding served as co-chair of the first West Hollywood Gay and Lesbian Task Force, which gave rise to West Hollywood's Gay and Lesbian Sheriff's Conference Committee, in which Spaulding was founding co-chair.

Estrada and Sylvia Sensiper Preface The Los Angeles Rebellion, which broke out over the last days of April 1992, was a short but expressive symptom of a deep malaise at the heart of urban America. As brief as it was, the Rebellion was a predictable outcome of the festering crisis in Los Angeles where deprivation, social marginalization, and powerlessness exist cheek-by-jowl with extraordinary wealth, privilege and opportunity. And while South-Central Los Angeles is the single most concentrated focus of the crisis—just as it was the principal site of the Rebellion—the conditions that define the crisis as such, recur persistently in many other parts of Southern California, and indeed in other parts of the United States at large.

    State” initiative would end incentives for “illegal aliens” to immigrate. Instead, the initia- tive would have denied basic human services to thousands and bounced many children from the public schools. Al-though the measure passed, it was never implemented, and was finally ruled unconstitutional. In 1994, University of California regent and Black Republican Ward Connerly began pushing to overturn affirmative action in the nine-campus system. The University, a recur- No we can’t all just get along: ring right-wing target, was one of the most diverse elite public systems in the country. On July 20, 1995, Connerly and Governor Pete Wilson combined to force a proposal through hip hop, gang unity and the LA rebellion the Board of Regents to end affirmative action in hiring and admissions. The following year, Connerly’s Proposition 209, ending affirmative action throughout California state government, was passed by the electorate. Nineteen ninety-six also marked the first year in the state’s history that spending on prisons and corrections exceeded spending on higher Excerpts from the book education. When the ban took effect in 1998, the number of Black and Latino freshmen admit- ted to the system dropped by 10 percent. At U.C. Berkeley alone, the numbers plunged Cant Stop Wont Stop by over 50 percent. By the end of the decade, the Justice Policy Institute estimated that nearly 50,000 Black males were in a California prison, while 60,000 were in a California by university. Across the country, 800,000 black males were in prison, while 600,000 were in college.

Special emphasis is placed upon those organizations and agencies which are based in, or are most relevant to, the South Central and East Los Angeles communities, although organizations located in other regions are included where they fit general guidelines for inclusion. The present edition is as reasonably up-to-date as possible in a city like Los Angeles. As in the previous editions, we have classified all such organ- izations and agencies by the areas of Greater Los Angeles (identical with the County of Los Angeles) in which they are located or which they primarily serve, and by the major type of activity or service in wh ich each one is engaged.

    ATTACHMENT B OPPORTUNITIES FOR MAKING BROADBAND AVAILABLE TO ALL ANGELENOS OURCYCLE LA – DIGITAL INCLUSION PILOT PROGRAM The City encourages interested parties to propose innovative ways to ensure that broadband is available to every Angeleno, and is particularly interested in receiving proposals in which the development of the CityLinkLA can be coordinated with the City’s digital inclusion efforts. Under the leadership of the Offices of the Mayor and City Council, the City of Los Angeles has implemented a digital inclusion pilot program, OurCycle LA, to take advantage of the thousands of salvage computers from the City. It is a collaborative public/private partnership between the City, non-profits, social enterprises and large corporate partners. The goals of the program are to maximize the use of the computers, provide job training and employment on computer refurbishing and recycling for individuals with high barriers to employment, minimize the City’s electronic waste footprint, and help bridge the digital divide in Los Angeles. OurCycle LA was officially launched on February 27, 2015. The limited supply of free refurbished computers is being distributed to low-income individuals or families in Council District 10, with focus on Baldwin Village and Koreatown. Qualified participants are required to attend a digital and financial literacy training program and sign up for low cost internet services. The refurbished computers will also be distributed to non-profit organizations throughout the City that operate public access computer centers serving disadvantaged communities. OurCycle LA will be used as a model for future treatment of the City’s electronic waste that will benefit low-income Angelenos, the environment, the local economy, and help develop the e-waste recycling sector in Los Angeles.
