Research indicates that Black people are suffering disproportionately from COVID-19. The needs of our community are specific and immediate, so this list of demands for changes both in immediate response and structural realities is crucial in the struggle for justice.

[Demand A People's Budget →](https://peoplesbudgetla.com/) # New Black City  Black Lives Matter Los Angeles and the Museum of Social Justice have partnered to curate an outdoor art exhibition. Black artists were invited to imagine a world without police. The exhibition documents the Black Lives Matter movement and illustrates what Los Angeles could be without policing and other carceral systems. The exhibition seeks to amplify the movement’s policy demand: to reclaim the billions of dollars that systems of law enforcement drain from Black communities and invest those resources in community-driven, life-affirming systems of care and services that truly keep us safe. Visitors are invited to contribute to the community altar, a sacred space for Black men, women, and children who have been killed while in police custody. Bring a photo, candle, flower, or other item of personal significance to add to the altar. Walk the black carpet and take a photo as you dream of a world where Black people can flourish.
