During a recent meeting, community members questioned a two-party system.
Jody Armour leads a community discussion each week at USC.Every Wednesday evening, a group of community members and USC students gather to discuss social, political and racial justice issues."We don't have any politically correct opinions. We challenge boundaries.
"It [politics] is always important because it defines our collective life, what it's going to look like, our social arrangements and the basic structure of society will be determined by politics, so are they [the students] thinking that the political system is serving the interests of socially marginalized groups that we study every week, especially Black folks who have been marginalized in this country's existence from the beginning," said Armour.
"These people really are the future but not just that, our present. When you look at the George Floyd protests in 2020, here in LA, we had the streets filled six weeks in a row every day and night with tens of thousands of people, most of them young people. A good number of young folks who were active and wanted to see political change.
