Summary In Impact Episode 307, we meet the only resident of an old haunted mining town, look at Los Angeles through the eyes of a Dutch vlogger on his very first visit, and hear differing opinions about the complex issues centering on the unhoused. Cerro Gordo, produced by Mateusz Balcerek, is a mining town nestled in the winding snow-capped Inyo Mountains in east-central California. We meet Robert Desmarais, the town caregiver and tour guide, as he reflects on the importance of preserving and restoring history so that the spirits of the past can survive into the future. In My Backyard, by Kurt Wyatt, explores a controversial Skid Row housing development planned to be built in a Van Nuys Historic District. We meet a long-time resident who expresses her fears for the neighborhood, but we also meet others who advocate for trying to solve a much larger housing problem in L.A. And in American Tourist, we meet Martjin, a student from the Netherlands aspiring to become a social media influencer and filmmaker. Yet, Martin's American adventure is interrupted when the 2020 coronavirus pandemic cuts short his time in the City of Angels.
