This was a beautiful poetry-reading event put on in a community garden by R.Y.P.E. (Reclaim Your Power and Equality) near Little Haiti / Buena Vista. This group of young adults strive to empower all people thru art and direct action - permaculture, sustainability and equality. They were very interesting and have good ideas for a better world - it was nice to see.

The community garden was AWESOME!
The ultimate in recycling - a compost heap!
