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. The topic of much of their work centers on the overlap between societal issues and their personal experience of those issues.

Prior projects include:

"I Erase This".

In a livestreamed fashion within the context of the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020 and 2021, across 250 days, Precious discussed and examined their personal 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 the most violent USA anti-LGBTQ protests of the century. Precious responded assertively in art, lampooning the cruelty, hysteria, and barren loneliness of the mob in music video format.

Why?

Precious Child started FAAM because they were horrified at the longstanding human rights disaster that is the unhoused population of Los Angeles. They view the unhoused as the ones who experience peak suffering in the USA and are dismayed by the lack of broad and individual accountability for this crisis. Because of this, they decided that they wanted to get people together to help out the unhoused with their basic needs. Precious Child believes that all people deserve good food, real housing, great medical care, and excellent education.

FAAM and Friends

The rest of FAAM is also volunteers. 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 years of experience aiding the unhoused, with the average being 3 years.
