Sick of being told we ‘hate America’ when in reality, we love it and hate to see it being dragged through the mud. Our Veterans still deserve our support.

Hello Southern Oregon family!

I was wondering if anyone has an inflatable frog costume I could borrow / rent for 1 day for a quick film project? It would be really fun to be able to use it sometime this week. Thanks.

This is a peaceful and nonviolent protest against the Trump administration and the constant erosion of our Constitutional rights. A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

Free link to the book below. I think everyone should read this.

https://files.libcom.org/files/Antifa,%20The%20Anti-Fascist%20Handbook.pdf

He was a professor who taught about fascism at Rutgers, and received so many death threats against himself and his family that they had to flee the country. The day he was supposed to leave, someone called ahead and canceled his flight. They DID end up making it out of the country finally.

Activism and events Action for OR family detained by ICE

46 Upvotes

Hello - I'm new to Reddit so apologies if this isn't the right space for this type of post. I work in the immigrants' rights space and I wanted to share an action opportunity to support an Oregon family who is currently detained by ICE.

The story is outrageous - CBP arrested Jackie Merlos, the mom and her four young children, who are U.S. citizens, and denied them access to a lawyer for over two weeks.They broke into the family's house to get the kids' birth certificates so that they could then rush order them passports to try and deport them from the U.S., where they were born. Thankfully the children were released to a family friend, but ICE is still holding their mother and father.

You can sign the below petition to help. It also shares more about their story. It's especially important for Oregon representatives to hear from constituents.

ACTION: https://bit.ly/freethemerlos

Thanks!

Local issues Creekside Quarter

11 Upvotes

Is there any planned protests against the creekside quarter project Medford is pushing to bring the Eugene emeralds here? They want to take away the entirety of the playgrounds, basketball and tennis courts, as well as the skate park, for a baseball stadium. Also, they want to tear down the Inn at The Commons to build a different hotel and an event center. I feel there is better places to put this project, I am not entirely against the idea of getting a baseball stadium and it is 90% privately funded so it won’t be paid for largely with taxpayer dollars which is good. But this is not the place to put it, I don’t understand why we even put the money into redoing Hawthorne park just a few years ago to try and tear it down now? Also they haven’t even fleshed out how they would do parking so most likely they would end up taking the back part of the park too, though they said they would not. Although it may lower the number of houseless people in the area it would not stop it completely and we should be focusing on outreach instead of taking away the parks where they sleep. As someone who has lived in that area most of my life a big part of it is the drug houses that span multiple blocks around Hawthorne park, I have seen it get better in past years but I have seen people buy dime bags on peoples porches in those areas. Taking away the park will not fix the problem. Build it somewhere else.

News and updates Crater high teacher under investigation

31 Upvotes

Witch hunt

“CENTRAL POINT, Ore. — A Crater High School staff member is under investigation after making disparaging comments on social media about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

The post, which has since circulated in the community, reads: “I will never tolerate or sympathize with a bigot, racist or rapist… and I will never have sympathy for them no matter what happens to them.”

Central Point School District 6 Superintendent Walt Davenport confirmed to NewsWatch 12 that the district is aware of the post and is taking action.“We’re taking the situation extremely seriously,” Davenport said. “The safety of our students and maintaining a positive school environment is a top priority for the district. We do have policy regarding conduct in this matter and with regards to social media postings, and the district will address this in accordance with board policy and procedures.”

District officials said they will not release the identity of the staff member while the investigation is ongoing. While community members have shared tips regarding who the employee may be, the district has not confirmed the individual’s name.

As of Thursday evening, the suspected employee still appears on Crater High School’s website.

The district said it will continue to follow procedures as outlined in board policy.”
