STILL SHIVERING AFTER ALL THESE WEEKS
\nFollowing a Sunday<\/span><\/span> 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.<\/p>\n

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).<\/p>\n

A LOOK BACK
\nAudio from last week’s Freedom Sleepout 22 is available at http:\/\/radiolibre.org\/brb\/brb151213.mp3<\/a> (2 hours and 30 minutes into the file).<\/p>\n

Alex does his usual excellent video coverage of #22 at http:\/\/www.indybay.org\/newsitems\/2015\/12\/14\/18780968.php<\/a> .
\nZav has documented the earlier confrontation at the annual City Council feast which sought to exclude the homeless and the public at the Palomar at http:\/\/www.indybay.org\/newsitems\/2015\/12\/09\/18780826.php<\/a> .<\/p>\n

My audio of the event is 48 minutes into the http:\/\/radiolibre.org\/brb\/brb151213.mp3<\/a> audio file, but is hard to hear.<\/p>\n

ADDITIONAL INFO<\/p>\n

See http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/571481246340033\/<\/a> for Steve Pleich’s posting announcing Sleep-Out #23.<\/p>\n

Some Freedom Sleepers will be gathering at 4 PM<\/span><\/span> prior to the Sleep-Out at City Hall to discuss next steps and new tactics.<\/p>\n

Toby Nixon of HAAC and other determined souls may be taking over the sleep-out’s beginning on December 22nd<\/span><\/span>. Contact Toby to support his effort at 408-582-4152<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The current issue of Street Spirit newspaper has a critical review of former Mayor Don Lane’s “compassionate letter” at http:\/\/www.thestreetspirit.org\/on-homelessness-and-human-rights-in-santa-cruz\/<\/a> .<\/p>\n
