I want to thank Dr. Brown and his senior students (who graduate later this month!) for their work this semester.
WEAVING THE SOCIAL FABRIC OF DISTRICT 3
Supporting Belonging, Well-Being, Self-Worth and Possibility in Pomona, CA was a course which explores the potential for the District’s public realm – streets, parks, schools, and other shared spaces – to support the strengthening of social fabric, and promote resiliency, belonging and possibility.
The final presentation at City Hall was attended by District 3 Commissioners and City Staff.
I cannot wait to read the final report on @green_city_blog at the end of the month.
Thank you all for your hard work and CONGRATULATIONS on your graduation 👏

I've had the immense privilege of traveling freely between states and national borders my whole life.
At no point was this clearer to me than on my recent trip to Denver, Colorado.
In between the great public art and public spaces I was reminded twice by TSA that I needed to obtain a Real ID by May 7, 2025. I smiled knowing I have no intention of getting a Real ID. A Real ID, in my opinion, is just a way for the government to track undocumented folks.
But even my silent protest is another privilege. I can stand in front of government agents free of fear, confident in my U.S. citizenship. They can ask me for as many identification cards and papers as they want -- I have them all.
The same can't be said for some of my extended family, who will likely miss my wedding, because they are afraid to travel cross country at the moment.
Traveling to see family and share in important moments shouldn't be a privilege. Traveling to and from work without fear shouldn't be a privilege.
Traveling for fun to see what ideas I can bring home to Pomona is a privilege that I will not take for granted again.
