About R2S PDX
Ain’t no denying we each have…
a RIGHT 2 Survive
a right 2 sleep
a right 2 shelter
a right 2 safety
a right 2 self support
a right 2 sustainability
a right 2 simple living
a right 2 share and barter
a right to sit and lie
and
a right 2 say so
Our goal is to empower the un-sheltered, the disenfranchised, those of color, oppressed minorities, those who are being treated like criminals because of their poverty.
Our goal is to use the legal process as much as possible to obtain use of public lands, buildings and resources for the purpose of helping people (not corporations and the politically favored).
Our goal is to proclaim and protect the rights of the those who capitalism has left behind.
Our goal is to facilitate creative use of under-utilized private spaces and resources for the purpose of getting people off the streets.
Our goal is to shine a light on the abuses of police as they abuse the homeless and poor.
Our goal is to force government to waste less and to get real about helping those who have become capitalism’s refugees.
Our goal is to form a hundred communal, bartering, green communities in the Portland area! When government would treat us like animals (and they are), then it is our right to care for ourselves. It is our duty to do so in as much in a ‘do no harm’ manner as possible. Help us. Join us.
