Hands Off the Poor Demonstration Unites Housed and Houseless

Hands off the Poor, a demonstration in response to police abuses against the poor and houseless, rallied members of the downtown community in an energetic and empowering display of force. The message was loud and clear: We will not allow the poor and houseless to be brutalized.

See our press release and demonstration follow-up, which provides information on what initiated the protest and community-directed action related to the sweeps.

The next forum will be held August 15th at 7pm, under the East Side of the Hawthorne Bridge.
