Crowds assembled in Fields Park in the Pearl District of Portland for a direct action march against US immigration policies & the detention of migrants by ICE at 8pm tonight, before beginning the march at 9. #PortlandProtest #PDXProtest #ICEProtest
The crowd arrived at United States Customs & Immigration Services (USCIS) field office on the intersection of 15th & Overton. The plywood protection was spraypainted with slogans. Members of the crowd also shone lasers at security cameras. #PortlandProtest #PDXProtest #ICEProtest
Portland Police bicycle-borne officers intercepted the crowd shortly after protesters left the UCIS Portland field office, and began pursuing the crowd through the Pearl District. #PortlandProtest #PDXProtest #ICEProtest

The crowd of many hundreds meets the police line in Stark Street.
Massive flames in between the police line and protesters. Probably a Molotov cocktail. Riot immediately declared. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Police fire flashbangs, smoke grenades, and rubber bullets at peaceful protesters, wounding protesters during the dispersal rush.

And another charge, several more arrests.
Police run into crowd for targeted arrest, swinging batons while they shout "stop resisting". Hot tip, guys, everyone knows that's code for "now we're engaging in brutality" in #2020
Made it to the North Precinct in Portland. There are about 100 protesters gathered outside. Police are stationed by their parking lot. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Here’s a look at the cops stationed outside the precinct at the moment. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Just chilling, waiting to call a riot. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Good evening Portlanders! I originally made this account more anonymous for the sake of keeping my personal opinions and feelings from affecting the objectivity of my reporting. After much thought, I have decided to use my name instead.
I assure everyone that this will not change the content or style of my reporting. I will continue to strive for excellence in reporting the stories & people in the city that I love. Truth in journalism is now more important than ever, in these changing times.
Placing my name will likely bring more hazards in my work, but I would like to be able to personally stand behind the facts I report. Stay tuned Portland. More news to come. #PortlandProtests #pdxprotest #BlackLivesMatter
A few hundred protesters just arrived at the Portland Police union building. It’s now day 95 of continuous of protests in Portland. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Already got spray paint on the plywood covering the PPA building. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Got dumpster fires in the small section of street in front of the PPA. Something in one of the dumpsters started exploding. Seemed like whatever it was, was already in the dumpster. #blacklivesmatter #protest #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Folks have locked themselves in the lobby of Mayor Ted Wheeler’s apartment. Saying they won’t leave till the mayor comes and listens to their demands. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest
Protesters dancing in the street in front of the Portland mayor’s apartment. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest

Here at Woodlawn Park in scenic Northeast Portland, where a bunch of folks in black have gathered in socially distanced small groups. This is the twelfth week of BLM #PDXprotest. It is officially dark at 9. Joe Strummer is on the stereo.
The call was for 8pm assembly. At the moment, about 150 folks here, with more arriving. In week 12, protests against racist policing are operating on the same timing rules as a house show. @/herbsforactivists (on insta) is here with salve and tea!
@PolitiQuill is also here tabling. They’re helping folks send postcards to convey their feelings on law enforcement in Multnomah County and Oregon State.
Fun fact: a week ago, someone biked up to the Justice Center and tossed two weeks worth of cat litter alllll over the gate for the garage. Next morning, a hazard team had to come and clean the whole ass garage entrance. Bet that was expensive. #pdxprotest
If yall see a cool, individual direct action... DM me with an unidentifiable story and I'll be spread the word!
Dog shit, terrarium/cage bedding... I notice a lot of hypothetical, renewable decorations for your neighborhood precinct
At the protest in SW Portland, meeting at Elizabeth Caruthers Park. The target is most likely the ICE building. It’s Wednesday Aug 19th. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #acab #PortlandProtests #PortlandStrong #ICE #DHS #pdxprotest
When I first arrived, I drove by ICE and there were 30-50 DHS officers out front. I checked on the building again at 8:50 and the officers weren’t visible. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #acab #PortlandProtests #PortlandStrong #ICE #DHS #pdxprotest

At Colonel Summers Park in SE Portland on Tuesday Aug 18th. A march is about to begin. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #acab #PortlandProtests #PortlandStrong #PortlandPolice #pdxprotest
I’m almost 85 days of protesting, there’s never been a main evening march in this area. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #acab #PortlandProtests #PortlandStrong #PortlandPolice #pdxprotest
People chant “Defund PPB how much? 50% at least! Where does that money go? Back to the community!” #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #acab #PortlandProtests #PortlandStrong #PortlandPolice #pdxprotest
Sunday Aug 16th, I’m in downtown Portland at the Justice Center covering the protests here tonight. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #acab #PortlandProtests #PortlandStrong #PortlandPolice #pdxprotest
Feds peeking out of the courthouse. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #acab #PortlandProtests #PortlandStrong #PortlandPolice #pdxprotest
Little over 100 people in the vicinity around the courthouse, smaller than usual, but the night is still relatively young. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #acab #PortlandProtests #PortlandStrong #PortlandPolice #pdxprotest

Protestors began to march in this direction from Peninsula Park around 9:20. They marched while chanting “Say his/her name” and responding with the names of victims of police brutality. #portland #salem #salemoregon #PortlandProtest #portlandoregon #oregon #portlandprotests #pdx
Police are making announcements over the LRAD telling protestors to get out of the street. Protestors are chanting “Take it to the streets, fuck the police, no justice, no peace.” #portland #salem #salemoregon #PortlandProtest #portlandoregon #oregon #portlandprotests #oregon
So we came to this tonight and as people are walking down burnside and have not yet reached the precinct the LRAD is telling protesters that people cannot enter the propert. I have been out many nights and no one has attempted to enter MCSO
LRAD is already warning of trespassing, arrest, and teargas if people enter the property of the Kelly Building “this includes journalists and members of the press”
Which is to say that a #PDXprotest #blm march is just now approaching the MCSO Building. Night 76?

Here is the front of the building. Current chant “#BlackLivesMatter
Quite the fire going just down the street from the Portland Police Association. Overheard someone say, “Here we are 2020... here we are. End of the world.” Great start to the night. #PortlandProtests
Protestors have taken off the boarding on the PPA, Portland Police now declaring an unlawful assembly and telling people to leave immediately. #PortlandProtests
Fire inside the PPA, area has been declared a riot #PortlandProtests
Arrived at injustice.

Wall of Vets in white tee shirts standing at 3rd Ave and Main Street. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #wallofmoms #WallofVets
The park that previously had the protest kitchen was cleared out by Portland Police earlier today. Feels a lot emptier. #blacklivesmatter #protest #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #wallofmoms #WallofVets

A thread covering the regime media and grifters spinning the PDX uprising, inc. those on the ground Wed Jul 29 w/ some friendly advice to AVOID these muppets if you see them. DO NOT confront them. Cameras are cops! Updated throughout the night #defendpdx @PDXshield #pdxprotest
A good little thread on security re. media and photographers w/ this statement emphasized "much love to the photographers who will never cooperate with (the) state, we love y’all <3"
Ruptly were out again last night w/ a 5 hour livestream, hunting for firestarters. Take note of the YT publisher context tag. And remember the online hellscape has 1000eyes, and a hateful intent to see this uprising fail and see rebels locked up in jail!
