Here’s another look inside the complexities of rebuilding in Altadena following January’s Eaton Fire, courtesy of AfroLA. "The takeaway right now is that the greatest value is in community preservation," Altadena resident Steve Lewis tells the outlet in response to the growing concerns of displacement for many of the Black families whose properties have sustained an inordinate amount of damage, according to a UCLA study. SoCal NOMA has been active in advocating for their position as the rebuilding process finally starts. They are working closely with other volunteer groups like the Altadena Rebuild Coalition to recover decades of Black history by founding community land banks and through other means.
