Good afternoon everyone! I am OTG near Union Station, where the Oscars will be happening in a few hours.
I spoke with Joseph, who used to live in a neighboring park and was told he had to leave and stated he wasn’t offered housing. He now lives several blocks away.

Some staff at the @LAPlazaLA talked about the museum which is nearby.
“It does take a little bit from the guests... they don’t have enough space”

Gregg Donovan, the “Ambassador Of Hollywood,” and former Official Ambassador of Beverly Hills who is characteristically chipper today said that there’s a hidden message of the Oscars happening in Union Station.
Says “everybody seems happy with the way it’s being coordinated.”

“It might’ve been the bare minimum,” regarding the unhoused.
“C’mon guys, let’s get back to normal,” he said when asked about protests- there are two scheduled for today. One asking for the release of Tia Turner and one “F*ck The Oscars” asking people to bring patriotic gear.

An update on Parking from @LAPlazaLA
Can confirm that the staff there were incredibly nice and forthcoming with questions. Can’t wait to visit. https://twitter.com/laplazala/status/1386409163757035523

First protest group arrived. They’re putting messages regarding the Tatiana Turner case.
They were told that the area was private property and they were not allowed to put sidewalk chalk down. One photog told he wasn’t permitted to take pictures. – bei Olvera Street

Koko, one of the people protesting here as part of the small “Drivers So White protest says that many white drivers nationwide who have hit pedestrians are being let off while Tia remains in bars. I interviewed Tia for @34thpod and you can listen here: https://shows.acast.com/district34/episodes/interview-with-blm-activist-tatiana-turner
I spoke with Tony, who is unhoused and lives nearby. He was very sad to hear thar some folks living nearby were forced to move.
