Sunday, November 15, 3:00pm Regulating Portland Sidewalks: Are civil rights being kicked to the curb?

After repeatedly ruled unconstitutional, the “sit-lie” ordinance is being replaced by Portland City Council with a Sidewalk Management Plan. Hear from homeless and civil rights activists about whether the new strategy addresses the rights and needs of the poor, homeless, and dissenters, or prioritizes downtown business interests by making poverty a crime.

This meeting will be held at the Bread & Roses Center, 819 N. Killingsworth St., Portland. (1/2 block west of N. Albina; TriMet bus lines #4 and #72). There is a requested $2 door donation. A Hearty Harvest meal will be served at 2pm for an $8-$10 donation ($4 for unemployed and strikers).
