The revolution begins with I!\u201d reads a slogan chant of all POOR Magazine\/PNN Scholars in residence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPOOR\u2019s rule from the beginning was to break down the myth of objectivity and the implicit \u201cother\u201d stance of journalism. We accomplished this through the integration of self, the use of \u201cI\u201d in every story.\u201d Explains \u201cTiny\u201d Lisa Gray-Garcia in her book, Criminal of Poverty: Growing up Homeless in America.<\/p>\n<p>Tiny eloquently adds, \u201cNo Dickensian positivism here. We were the subjects: The incarcerated, the welfare moms, the working poor, the disabled, the homeless, the low income youth of color, the evicted tenants. We were the \u201cinsiders\u201d seizing media and creating resistance with every article, statement, story, and photograph.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For most, if not all of us, we are either advised or warned not to \u201cbelieve everything we read\u201d and \u201cdon\u2019t believe everything we hear.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Corporate mainstream media, and broadcast journalism: The endless progressive network of parallel proportions, channeled on local and global levels equipped with its arsenals: Facts distortion, false notions, stereotypical viewpoints, exaggerated external exposures, innuendo, counter-production, non-partisan, fear implementation, and lives designation. Every category coerced to capture the eye and mind for control.<\/p>\n<p><strong>POOR Magazine\/PNN ALL THE NEWS THAT DOESN\u2019T FIT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The seeds are planted by \u201cmedia\u201d to root within our minds, to incarcerate and rob our rationale of reasonable thought. The end result is that poverty, racism, oppression, gentrification, race and class segregation, police brutality, incarceration, etc, etc is expanded on by corrupt politicians, extended by public ignorance, then favored by proponents.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, us people in poverty are halted from being heard. Even worse, being allowed to talk but are never truly listened to. This reality alone exposes the \u201cmyth of objectivity\u201d within media.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;POOR Magazine is very dedicated to supporting the efforts of grassroots social justice organizing.\u201d Says Emily Lee from the Chinese Progressive Association. \u201cWorking class Chinese youth are fighting to save St. Luke&#8217;s Hospital from being downsized, and POOR was the first media outlet to give our leaders an opportunity to speak out about our campaign. We need organizations like POOR Magazine to give the marginalized communities of San Francisco a voice!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>POOR Magazine\/POOR News Network, based here in San Francisco, CA is a non-profit, community grass roots multi-generational, indigenous led grass roots arts organization. Reporting the news and sup porting people in poverty, locally and globally.<\/p>\n<p>Every signature by government officials targeting poor communities brings POOR to the forefront to confront them. An unlawful eviction from a landlord (slumlord) or \u201cpoverty pimp\u201d to the vulnerable is immediate intervention, sometimes resulting in prevention. Publishing the awful truth, misguided and concealed by written lies of houseless\\landless people child displacement, marginalized communities, police repression, youth violence, \u201cimmigration laws\u201d, unrecognized work, etc, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike any community I have ever (or will ever) witnessed, POOR is deliverance to unlimited, unheard voices, while operating on fuel funding deficiencies.<\/p>\n<p>Providing media access to people in poverty and low income, endless possibilities, programs, resources, and hope to resist systematic oppression. POOR Magazine\/PNN is featured only monthly online. However, its not even just media access that POOR provides to low-income folks and penetrating corporate mainstream media with \u201cdigital resistance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Writing workshops and facilitation, Po\u2019 Poets Project, (poetry), POOR Press Authors (book class), Court Watch, Revolutionary Legal Advocacy Project (me), Family Project, (Childcare) Spanish classes Voces de Inmigrantes for migrant scholars to become media producers and writers, Welfare Queens, Hotel Voices, (theater), etc, etc, and media education. Recently, People Skool\/ Escuela de la Gente was launched to challenge what is really learned and researched within academia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPOOR\u2019s greatest impact is that it has always respected the genius that exists in all of us.\u201d Says Paul Boden, activist for the homeless, director of the Western Regional Advocacy Project. (WRAP) \u201cEach one is a teacher and student. POOR has always respected the genius that exists in all of us. Each one is a teacher and student, POOR has always promoted the intellect that people have regardless of their income.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPOOR is the most effective and essential organization I know.\u201d Says Mary Ratcliff, editor of San Francisco Bay View National Black Newspaper and comrade. \u201cAs government and big business make the rich richer and the poor poorer, POOR reminds us that the poor are the vast majority. By learning journalism the way POOR teaches it and speaking truth to power, poor people can combine forces to seek and win justice and determine our own destiny.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The writers are poor people. The artists are poor people. The experts are poor people.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThroughout time our ancestors have passed on the history, the struggle, through the medium of art. Egyptians, the Mayans, and the Aztecs use art to speak about their past and present.\u201d Muteado Silencio, Migrant Scholar and artist explains as to what art means to him in struggle. \u201cThe way I use art is to organize.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Inside the office of POOR exists an indigenous land, welcomed to all poverty scholars, (and everyone) scholars of all struggles, uncompromised by corporate media and politics. A separate room for the children of moms struggling with childcare, called Family Project. It was co-founded by June Hall, aka Jewnbug, in 2001.<\/p>\n<p>This project is also for children to participate in arts, education, and become youth scholars. Revolutionary Youth Scholar, six year-old Tiburcio, son of Tiny softly said to me why he loves POOR. \u201cBecause they write articles that support poor people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On every wall are artworks, poster and pictures relating to struggle. The \u201cUncle Al Library\u201d is dedicated in honor and memory of the late great, Al Robles, a legendary community organizer who fought for the rights of seniors. On a sturdy table is a huge urn bearing the ashes of the late great poverty hero, \u201cMama\u201d Dee Gray-Garcia, co-founder of POOR. It is chalk signed by everyone who knew, heard, and loved her. A collage of past revolutionaries rests on the wall beside Mama Dee.<\/p>\n<p>A wall of resistance of those who\u2019ve passed while in struggle: The Poverty Hero. The practice of ancestor, elder worship is very sacred to and reminded by us each day, on this indigenous land when we are target practice by the system.<\/p>\n<p>For those who don\u2019t know about POOR Magazine\/POOR News Network it was created by a woman of a unique vision, name \u201cTiny\u201d Lisa Gray Garcia for the poor to be heard. This vision was also shared with her mom.<\/p>\n<p>A mother and daughter team with only a car to call their sanctuary, survived on \u201cunderground economic strategies\u201d (such as street vending) defiance to \u201ccrimes of poverty\u201d, endless court fines, caretaking her mom, having only a six-grade education, but equipped with self-education while speaking and writing equivalent to a professor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Twenty-two evictions \u2026 one court date away from homelessness \u2026 on the day the story (POOR Magazine) appeared in print, she cried.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Surviving these life struggles, Tiny gave birth to POOR Magazine\/PNN in 1996, after she applied and received a small grant from the San Francisco Arts Commission. Using this opportunity, she immediately set her sights on society to educate and deconstruct the institutionalized ignorance surrounding poverty.<\/p>\n<p>The knowledge often shared by her to others is the consciousness of Western Eurocentric, cultural colonization and its abominate domination of poor communities, everywhere. The need and continuation for consciousness of what is really written 24\/7 about our lives, before our eyes is the scholarship she shares.<\/p>\n<p>What Tiny also shares and teaches is where does academia and formal educations of institutions for learning stand when its highest education is shared primarily to the privileged?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Taking back the land, resisting criminalization, one story at a time<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was told I was stupid, retarded, and would not amount to anything.\u201d Explains Bruce Allison, staff reporter and Elder Scholar. Even as an elder in the year 2000, Bruce\u2019s own father ridiculed him, disregarding the fact that he was able to negotiate a union contract for 12,000 workers. \u201cIn 2005, they (POOR) gave me dignity, hope, and the chance to write a book. I was able to get on the radio and find the skill that I thought I never had.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since joining POOR, Bruce never ceased his gratefulness. He tenaciously reports on decisions made by city officials, on city and state levels. \u201cI have the option to do the easiest duty reporting on S.F. City Hall.\u201d Bruce jokes. He continues to advocates for the rights of seniors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>No more stolen lives!

(Multiple police units killed Idriss as he experienced a psychological breakdown.) \u201cAnd within the same year, gave Idriss a posthumous Resistance Award.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A very powerful ally, Mesha Monge-Irizarry\u2019s monumental support, to POOR and myself over the years exemplifies importance of community. Her support far beyond words led to my resistance against the San Francisco Police Department, five year ago. Twelve guns, twelve badges, armed with a lie illegally intruded into my life, at twelve midnight.<\/p>\n<p>Tiny\u2019s astonishment of my own act of resistance, as I took direct civil action against them, as my own lawyer led to the foundation of the Revolutionary Legal Advocacy Project of POOR, in 2007. Since then, we\u2019re both proud of the lives we were able to change, and intervene against injustices of within the unjust legal system.<\/p>\n<p>The ink from governments, and corporation mainstream media never dries in writing away our lives. Neither will the ink by the hand, the \u201cI\u201d voice of all scholars struggling locally, globally \u2026 and in residence of POOR Magazine\/PNN.<\/p>\n<p>For Joseph Bolden, Leroy Moore, Laure McElroy, Jewnbug, Bruce Allison, Muteado Silencio, Ruyata Akio McClothin, Carina Lomeli, Charles Pitts, Thornton Kimes, Ingrid de Leon, Vivian Hain, Tony Robles, \u201cTiny\u201d Lisa\u00a0 Gray-Garcia, \u201cMama\u201d Dee Gray-Garcia, and yours truly, Marlon Crump, our scholarships are collective with these words:<\/p>\n<p>We have used what little resources we have to reach out and help other people like ourselves. Some say that just &#8220;surviving&#8221; is a form of resistance, but while it is occurring it does not feel like resistance inside. The Western cultures in which we have been raised and it&#8217;s Euro-centric values, in our opinion do not translate well for poor people,&#8221; said Dee &#8220;Mama&#8221; Gray.<\/p>\n<p><em>P-O-O-R Scholars till we die!
