Yesterday, thousands of LAUSD students held a walkout at City Hall to protest the federal government's immigration raids.

We mourn the loss of Jewel Thais-Williams, a pioneering force in the Black LGBTQ+ community. In 1973, she opened Jewel’s Catch One, the first large-scale Black-owned LGBTQ nightclub in the United States. ‘The Catch’ became a cultural haven in Los Angeles for over 40 years.
