A long line of officers. Counting down the time to 12, when I assume we willnbe arrested for standing on a sidewalk We have a legal right to stand on this sidewalk. This is a public place, sidewalks do not close LRAD unbearably loud tonight

The police made clear threats of arresting people on the sidewalk. Most people went to Pioneer Square After several post-midnight warnings, the cops retreated. They can't close the sidewalks without announcing it. Some police officer in my face can't close it arbitrarily

Those who stayed are moving to join the group in Pioneer Square

At Pioneer Square. People are sitting on the steps. The organizers is telling us that we should vote and write our reps. The POC caucus have advanced 5 bills for police refoem There's virtue in that. Doesn't seem like enough

We are now hearing from someone who was put in solitary confinement at ten years old after defending himself against a white boy TEN Gotta throw the whole system out

We heard from a woman whose daughter was killed in Salem. We are going to go write her name on the memorial wall
