The “anti-eviction mapping project” consist of viewing data, examining information, and shared stories located not only in California (San Francisco and Los Angeles) but also in New York and globally. The project identifies the map of native grounds that have been taken away, split up, and colonized.
Colonial and Nation state: resident’s protection occurs inside these boundaries. The aim emphasizes on appreciating the first stewards of the land by utilizing Indigenous names and deliver services.
