The Homefulness Project
Homefulness is a houseless peoples HEALing solution to homelessness. Rent free, forever homes, with on-site indigenous healing, support , art, education, media & ComeUnity launched with permission, prayer & protocol from 1st Nations peoples of wherever on occupied Turtle Island it is MamaFested. Homefulness was launched and visioned by a houseless, indigenous, disabled mother and daughter while they were struggling on the streets with the violence of homelessness.
Homefulness is what poor, houseless, indigenous, evicted, disabled, false-border-terrorized peoples from all four corners of Mama Earth, now residing on stolen and occupied Turtle Island, have dreamed, loved, and fought for. After lifetimes of being displaced, evicted, incarcerated, swept, criminalized and traumatized, our family is actually “buying” land and building permanent homes, food justice, art and healing comeUnity for ourselves and the world. We operate in the tradition of and in solidarity with landless people's movements across the globe.
​
The land we call Homefulness in East Huchiun (Oakland) now provides housing for families, space for Deecolonize Academy, PeopleSkool, Community Newsroom, Sliding Scale Cafe, the Uncle Al & Mama Dee Living Library, Revolutionary Radio on PNN–KEXU, and all of POOR Magazine's indigenous community arts & media programming.
The vision of Homefulness is a blueprint for unselling and physically and spiritually liberating Mama Earth by permanently removing land from the speculative "real estate" market. It is meant to be replicated all across occupied Turtle Island and Mama Earth.
There is a House in East Huchiun...
by Tiny Gray-Garcia
from The Sidewalk Motel: Poems from a Poverty Skola
​
There is a house in East Huchiun
They Call it Homefulness
And its been the dream of many a poor girl
And God I know im one
My mama was disabled
Tortured as a child
My father was a rich wite man
Who left us all to die
Now the only thing a poor mama needs
Are hands to hold her dreams
But mama and me were all alone
So instead we lived on the street
mama and me were broken
Barely made it out alive
but no matter what
She refused to believe in the
settler colonial lies
Sometimes the pain is too hard
Mama said I can’t go on
But walk this change
On this Ohlone land
And Build us all a home
Well there is a house in East Huchiun
They call it Homefulness
And its been the hope of many a poor girl & boy
And GOD I know we are them
Well there is a house in East Huchiun
They call HOMEFULNESS
And its been the dream of many a poor boy & girl
And god I know we are them...
Building Homefulness has been a labor of love by our poverty skola construction crew with the support of our radical redistributors and revolutionary architects and designers in a struggle against kkkrapitalist bureauKRAZY every step of the way over many years.
