      LA has some of the best street food in the US. The best tacos. Corn on the cob to die for. And fresh-cut fruit.

      There's like 50,000 street food venders here. Their lives, work, and food is criminalized, because LA doesn't have a licensing process.

      Most of the street food venders in LA are immigrants; a big portion of the vendors are undocumented. They're abused in unimaginable ways.

      Street food vendors are scared of the cops. Lots of cops get free food from vendors because they're scared they'll be arrested otherwise.

      Some street vendors have to pay for street protection in a variety of ways. Another unreported aspect of street vending, but it happens.

      And everyday patrons can be abusive and rob street vendors of food and more, and little can be done. Street vending is a precarious thing.

      And restaurants sometimes tip authorities off about a street food vendor because they don't like the competition. Hater shit.

      Unethical reporters that love to sensationalize "this is the best [fill-in-the-blank street food]" also put the street food vendor in peril.

      If you know street food vendors, you'll know that what they fear the most is getting raided. It's a logical and persistent fear.

      During a raid, authorities will take not only the the street vendor's food, but also the equipment. It leaves them with nothing.

      Public servants like mayor @ericgarcetti say they want to protect everyone. But street food vendors feel very little sense of safety.

          We were out today and craving mangoes. Fresh cut with lime and salt please! What we found instead was a street food vendor getting raided.

          I love LA. But I'm ashamed to claim a city that treats people like this. It's immoral to criminalize this work.pic.twitter.com/nfVyEeoGE3

          This is how the City of LA prioritizes its funds: it criminalizes immigrant people who are doing the essential work of feeding others.

          LA locks people into impossible decisions. Street food vendors can't apply for licenses because none exist. Makes life even more vulnerable.

          This kind of thing is important ahead of the new administration. LA can't front like its a magical sanctuary if it continues to do this.
