Clayton Thomas-Muller, is a native-energy organizer with the Indigenous
Environmental Network (IEN). IEN works to build the capacity of Indigenous
communities and tribal governments to develop mechanisms to protect their
land,
water, air, natural resources, and health. Members of IEN spent the last two
weeks in Montreal at the UN Conference on Climate Change, where
representatives
from 180 countries  met to discuss implementation of the Kyoto Protocol and to
begin discussion on what will happen once the agreement expires in 2012. 

Elena Popp, is an attorney and founder of the Eviction Defense Network that
represents tenants facing eviction.  She is the lawyer for the evictees of the
Lincoln Place Apartments. This apartment complex was built in 1951 to address
the post-WWII housing crisis and has since provided rent-controlled quality
housing.. However, since the 1980's, it has been under threat of demolition by
property developers and just last week, on Tuesday, December 6th, the
residents
of Lincoln Place were locked out of their homes in one of the largest mass
evictions in the history of the Los Angeles Housing Department. 

Hosts:


Tammy Bang Luu & Manuel Criollo are both organizers with the Los Angeles based
Labor/Community Strategy Center and the Strategy Center's main mass campaign,
the Bus Riders Union "Fight Transit Racism, Billions for Buses" campaign.
