“Homeowners need more direct support and clarity,” says Gabriella Carmona, a senior research analyst at UCLA’s Latino Policy and Politics Institute, who co-wrote a new analysis about the issues facing fire survivors. That report found that a small percentage of survivors have sold their properties, and roughly 70% have yet to take any steps to rebuild. Black homeowners, who were disproportionately affected by the Eaton Fire, were more likely to be stalled in their progress.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, ethno-communications students at the UCLA School of Theater, Film & Television learned to use film as a tool for social change. The program paired filmmaking with journalism, mass communication and community engagement, giving birth to “The L.A. Rebellion.” Several of the filmmakers returned to campus last weekend for a screening of their works as part of the series “Toward a More Perfect Rebellion: Multiracial Student Activism at UCLA,” followed by a discussion with NYU Cinema Studies Associate Professor Josslyn Luckett, whose recent book traces the history and impact of this effort. Read more about the artists in this UCLA Magazine feature.
