Protests for December 12

Scheduled Events

• Portland Interfaith Clergy Resistance: Prayer for Peace and Power – 6 am

Timeline

As the evacuation defense at the Red House enters its 4th day as a blockade (Note: the eviction protest has been ongoing since September) protesters begin the day with an interfaith morning prayer.

Had a nice sunrise prayer at RH this morning led by an array of interfaith clergy.

The continually bustling camp is perpetually repairing and innovating, all while people at all levels of involvement engage in heavy conversations on strategics and philosophy.
