| STILL SHIVERING AFTER ALL THESE WEEKS Following a Sunday Freedom Sleepers Forum with Robert Aguirre of San Jose, Tristia Beauman of the National Law Center, and Keith McHenry of Food Not Bombs–and a Community TV broadcast, some Freedom Sleepers will continue the weekly vigil in front of City Hall. Folks need to make their way through the cold to the few open bathrooms and should not expect much in the way of food and drink (though there may be some). A LOOK BACK Alex does his usual excellent video coverage of #22 at http://www.indybay.org/ My audio of the event is 48 minutes into the http://radiolibre.org/brb/ ADDITIONAL INFO See http://www.facebook.com/ Some Freedom Sleepers will be gathering at 4 PM prior to the Sleep-Out at City Hall to discuss next steps and new tactics.
