Ron Finley gives a speech about being a guerilla gardener in South Central LA. He uses gardening as a way to beautify his community and change the landscape of vacant lots and liquor stores. In his introduction, he humorously points out how the city changed the name from South Central to South LA, but that did nothing to address the real issues. He keeps his speech lighthearted while still conveying the importance of what he is doing by transforming empty spaces into gardens and encouraging others to do the same.
