Are services that help people who are experiencing homelessness..."concentration camps?"

The Jewish Journal, and Jewish leaders from the Anti-Defamation League, American Jewish Committee, Simon Wiesenthal Center, StandWithUs, and StopAntiSemites condemn Council member Alex Fisch's remarks comparing programs that help people who are experiencing homelessness to "concentration camps."

At the Culver City Democratic candidate forum on June, 29, 2022, candidates were asked the following question: “How will you address the housing and homelessness crisis?. Council member Alex Fisch, who is running for re-election made the following comment:
“Marching people off to concentration camps in Palmdale is not a solution. It’s not moral and it’s not the Democratic Party way of doing things.” 

We along with others in our community finds this comment offensive, divisive, insensitive, and disparaging. Conflating any services related to helping people who are experiencing homelessness with the Nazi death marches to concentration camps where over 6 million Jews, and over 7 million others were systematically put into forced labor or selected for immediate execution is reprehensible, causes harm and must not go unchallenged.

Save R1/Single-Family Zoning

Solving our affordable housing crisis requires thoughtful, effective, and community-building solutions. 
​We can preserve single-family homes and support paths to affordable and equitable housing for all. 
​​

We did the math. Tearing down homes in R1 zoning and building fourplexes doesn't pencil out. This will not be affordable housing.

​Watch our video to see why.

REALITY CHECK:

Eliminating Single-Family Homes in Culver City WILL NOT LEAD TO Affordable New Housing. 
Land prices are too high. Lots are too small. No builder wants to lose money!
