Summary:
Join the Foreclosure Resistance!
Come out and support the community! Enjoy live music, children's activities, yummy potluck dishes and a informative foreclosure forum in front of the Hernandez family's home - which is currently occupied by activists from the Occupy movement to prevent the eviction action initiated by the predatory Bank of America.
