Bathrooms....in Santa Cruz??!! Today's Sunday Sentinel featured Jessica York's story around Santa Cruz, the Town Without Crappers. A front-page above-the-fold story, no less.

FightBack against City Manager's Anti-Homeless Signs at City Hall  Throughout the past week, unhoused folks, who some call the Survival Sleepers, have defied the latest drive-em-out edicts of City Manager Martin Bernal. Other activists are planning protests at City Council next Tuesday. Bernal has refused to answer simple questions about his newly posted signs. Mayor Chase in a recent interview refused to put the issue on the May 23rd Agenda for Public Discussion and Vote.... Posted: Sat May 20, 2017 11:44AM

"Progressives" Defeat Trump Wall Investment, but Local Anti-Homeless Fencing Still On  Looks like the threat of disinvestment from Granite Construction may have discouraged them from bidding for the anti-immigrant Trump wall on the border. However the Councilmember Terrazas's :"Public Safety" Committee will still be considering a "cost-effective" fence along the levee along with increased cops, surveillance cameras, and lighting to add to the "no loitering", forbidden to sit, and high-pitched anti-homeless "Mosquito" boxes along the levee at Tuesday night's 4-25 Council meetin...

Struggle Against Sleeping Ban Becomes a Matter of Survival at City Hall  For the last 10 nights since the Winter Shelter program ended (a month earlier than Berkeley's or Salinas's), some of its refugees have been camped at City Hall, spending their nights and some of their days there as well. Some are arrayed just outside the offices of Mayor Cynthia Chase and the same Council majority that kept sleeping a crime in a Council vote last spring. I've written a flyer or two about the issue & distributed it at "liberal" activist gatherings like the Indivisible rally... Posted: Mon Apr 17, 2017 11:38PM
War Against the Poor and War Abroad Ramps Up  There have been nearly two years of weekly overnight protests on the sidewalks adjoining City Hall (the Freedom Sleepers) and a month of nightly protests (a group I call the Survival Sleepers) at the same spot. Now, the day after Fuhrer Trump has directly attacked Syria, escalating to the brink of nuclear war, SCPD attacked the poor sheltering themselves under the eaves of the City Hall and arrested Freedom Sleeper Abbi Samuels as she videoed the abuse. The Winter Shelter program (shelterin... Posted: Fri Apr 7, 2017 8:49AM

Denounce City Council's Toothless Sanctuary Law, then Join Freedom SleepOut #88 Join the fun in front of City Hall at 809 Center St. on the brick entranceway to the "City Hall Courtyard" from Tuesday Afternoon through Wednesday mid-morning.

Food and festivities will begin near (or perhaps inside) City Council chambers. The Gang of Seven will finalize an ... Event Date: Tue Mar 14, 2017 3:00PM Posted: Tue Mar 14, 2017 12:42AM

Video Shows SCPD Blocking Media from Sean Arlt Killing Press Conference  Activist Wes White documents the exclusion of alternative media from the SCPD's 2-16 Press Conference. There SCPD Police Chief Vogel announced that Officer Eric Bailey was the killer of Sean Arlt, who, police say, approached them aggressively with a metal rake back in early October. The only evidence presented was Vogel's account, some partial audio, and a partial obscured video that had no recognizable figures in it and ended ten minutes before Arlt died....
