Calling on Vice-Mayor Coonerty at the Bookshop Sunday 2 PM 9-9-07--the Protest Continues
We press on with the campaign to contact the inaccessible Vice-Mayor Ryan Coonerty, manager/worker at the Bookshop. We'll urge shoppers to talk with Coonerty, suggesting their dollars will go elsewhere if he continues to back laws that criminalize the poor, like the City's Sleeping Ban. We'll also be signing up volunteers, seeking donations for the lawsuit against the Sleeping Ban, looking for plaintiffs, and encouraging folks to attend City Council meeting this coming Tuesday at 7 PM. 1520 Pacific Ave in downtown Santa Cruz
Also Featured: Guerrilla theater involving panhandling plumbers and justice-seeking janitors, who are volunteering to clean-up the mess at City Hall and at Coonerty's bookstore. Coonerty has accused the protesters of "creating a climate" where his bathrooms are vandalized. Coonerty, in his three years as Councilmember, has still not opened up a 24-hour bathroom.
We will also be discussing and preparing for a potential Sleep-Out at City Hall either at the first Council meeting of the year on Tuesday, September 11th. or at the 2nd Council meeting on Spetember 25th. The Sleep-Out will coincide with anti-war protest as Congress ducks its obligation to stop funding for the war in HUFF"s Vigil Against Two Wars (the War on the Poor and the War Against Iraq).
See http://indybay.org/newsitems/2007/09/01/18445294.php for more details of the ongoing Coonerty protest.
