In recent days we have put up a tree-sit to defend the Muwekma (peoples) Park which the University admits its is coming for. The UC police use Park degenerates (Dave) to intimidate Tree sitter from defending the Park and then brutalizes the tree by cutting down 20 branches. The University wants to level the Park (42 years of resistance) by and or in the summer when the students leave for break.
