Please join members of the homeless community in front of City Hall as they protest and eat lunch to demonstrate their anger and frustration at the continued harassment of the homeless by the police and City of St. Petersburg. Just today, the police harassed every homeless person around mirror lake and made them stand up and prove they could carry their belongings and not have too many belongings. In one case, 2 persons belonging were taken without them being there. And, one of the people had heart medicine in their belongings! Police were called and they returned the medicine. But, this should not happen!! We are not in a facist country, are we?

This event will take place in front of City Hall at noon tommorrow, Friday, June 19th. Lunch will be served to the homeless community.

Please join us in solidarity! Human rights for all!! Housing for all!! Health care for all! And jobs for all!

 Call 727 278 1547 or 424 1088 for details.

This event is sponsored by For The Homeless, By The Homeless, the Poor People's Economic Human Rights Campaign, and The Refuge.
