#sweepsareviolent — Public Fediverse posts

Just as winter weather has begun to set in, the state has conducted a sweep of a Cambridge encampment, once again displacing residents who were just beginning to recover from previous sweeps and a fire. The residents had little time to prepare for the sweep, and have lost nearly everything. As always, the state has chosen to neglect the people’s material needs, instead acting with cold brutality in service of gentrification and profit. We are attempting to provide material aid in a way that will help residents to stay warm, dry, and fed while they try to recover from this latest injustice. If you are in the Boston area and outraged by this violence, consider coming to visit our table at the @BostonAnarchistBookfair on Saturday 11/11 and Sunday 11/12 from 10am-5pm. We will be accepting material donations at our table! Warm clothing and blankets are highly requested. If you are interested in volunteering with us, you can DM our social media accounts. Donations are much appreciated, and will go directly towards material aid for those that we assist. Donations can be made via PayPal warmupboston @ protonmail dot com or via our Ko-Fi account, which can be found in our bio. #WarmUpBoston #ServeThePeople #SurvivalProgram #EncampmentSupport #MobileDistro #MutualAid #HarmReduction #SweepsAreViolent
