Unheard LA: Join Our Storytellers As They Tackle The Origin Stories That Define Us

Truth matters. Community matters. Your support makes both possible. LAist is one of the few places where news remains independent and free from political and corporate influence. Stand up for truth and for LAist. Make your tax-deductible donation now.

Unheard LA is KPCC/LAist's live storytelling series featuring authentic first-person experiences. As we take a break from the stage, we've created a series of new virtual experiences that revisit some stories from past shows as starting points for deeper listening and insightful conversations.

Tonight at 6:30, storytellers Angela Sanchez, Matt Sedillo, and Jin Yoo-Kim will join Bruce Lemon, Jr. and Race In LA's Dana Amihere to dig into origin stories and the early life experiences that make us who we are.

Pay-what-you-want tickets available here. Watch live above starting at 6:30 p.m.

Instead, we answer to you and our connected community. We are free to tell the full truth, to hold power to account without fear or favor, and to follow facts wherever they lead. Our only loyalty is to our audiences and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen our community.

Right now, LAist has lost $1.7M in annual funding due to Congress clawing back money already approved. The support we receive from readers like you will determine how fully our newsroom can continue informing, serving, and strengthening Southern California.
