About Us

Who is FAAM?

FAAM is run on a volunteer basis by the Los Angeles artist Precious Child. An industrial punk musician and video artist, their artistic work is inextricable from their human rights activism. 

Prior projects include:

"I Erase This"

Livestreamed across 250 days during the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020 and 2021, Precious discussed and examined their internalized and externalized racism, as well as their own experiences being subjected to racism.

"Anarchooking"

With the help of friends, Precious Child ran a gourmet street kitchen making hot meals for the unhoused at encampments around Los Angeles. 2022-2024. Associated work included the song "Money is the Death God".

"LGBTQ Advocacy: 'TEAR UP'"

Precious Child was the target of a viral anti-LGBTQ hoax "Wi Spa" which resulted in one of the most violent anti-LGBTQ protests in the country. Precious responded by lampooning the cruelty, hysteria, and barren loneliness of the mob in music video format.

Why?

Precious Child started FAAM because they were dismayed by the inefficacy of institutional and individual care for the unhoused, who experience some of the worst living conditions in the country. In their opinion, people needlessly suffer and die on the streets of LA every day. In their dismayed eys, there is a lack of broad and individual accountability for this crisis. Precious Child believes that all people deserve good food, real housing, great medical care, and excellent education. Taking action, they got together a group of volunteers to help the unhoused with their basic needs.

FAAM is completely volunteer-supported. It is comprised of friends old and new. There's nothing like coming together to help others out, and simple kindness in group action for others is a great foundation for friendship! Many of our volunteers have 3+ years of experience aiding the unhoused.
