We are Compton’s x Coalition, and we’re working to protect and transform 111 Taylor Street into a site of liberation and cultural memory, free from carceral control and corporate profiteering, and to anchor a broad vision of intersectional justice. We will preserve this historic landmark, prevent its future use for incarceration, and steward it for abolitionist futures, housing justice, and ecological healing.
