As extractive “wildcrafting” has become popular, supposedly treaty-protected #Indigenous access to ancestral gathering sites has diminished, says Michelle Week (Sinixt, Arrow Lakes), who runs x̌ast sq̓it, an Indigenous foods farm near #Portland #Oregon.
“You have the privilege to go out and gather these things without fear of harassment, but my community, who’s native to this place, we just don’t have that luxury.”

Despite a $1.3 billion investment that Portland said would improve the safety of homeless people, deaths in Multnomah County have quadrupled — from 113 in 2019 to more than 450 in 2023.
This is a "notice to remove 'personal property ' from public spaces because homeless people do not have US Constitutional rights in AmeriKKKa.
They've been coming for the homeless for decades but your silent because your not homeless.
They've been coming for non-white people for decades but your white so you barely make a whisper.
They've been coming for gay people for decades but your not gay so you barely make a whisper.
Soon, there will be no one left to stand up for you...
WAKE THE FUCK UP before your on the list.
The USA is a terrorist country ran by rich people. Are you rich enough?

Hey #Portland there's a guy trying to shoot homeless people in your area. It's rare that a case like this gets so much media coverage, such solid pictures of the attacker AND a $2500 bounty.
Hope y'all locate him:
📍 1300 & 1600 block of Schmeer Road
📍 3500 block of North Victory Blvd.
This man is wanted for questioning after a series of unprovoked shootings targeting homeless people.

One of the scariest moments of my life was when I fled #boise #idaho to #portland #oregon with nothing.
I was #homeless and desperate, and there was nothing left for me there but bad memories, and very few resources for someone poor.
I had exhausted all my options, and I was just trying not to die.
Still recovering from #opioids I got on a Greyhound to a shelter I had lined up in advance, and stepped from a desert into rain.
All that effort and fear just to have a bed.
