Community-Led Advocacy: Saving Places and Building Power

Hear what Rosalind learned about community-led conservation then, and how she’s building community and cultivating new leaders now with the Los Angeles Conservancy, Save Our Chinatown Committee, and Asian & Pacific Islander Americans in Historic Preservation.
