Support a Black Protester Assaulted while Defending Housing Rights
As inflation, price gouging, and skyrocketing home prices have affected the nation, the city of Seattle has become increasingly hostile to low-income and middle-class populations. Meanwhile, the City Council has been actively suppressing affordable housing measures—and, at the same time, pushing bills to criminalize the presence of unhoused people and sex workers in large swaths of the city. Black residents make up just 8% of Seattle, yet 25% of homeless individuals in the city are African-American.
