We swung by Riverfront Park where there’s a bake sale to raise funds to help people affected by the wildfires. The event was organized by “patriots against racism,” mainly Epilogue Kitchen which has been involved in #BLM organizing. #Oregonfires#santiamfires#oregon#wildfire
Approximately 15 people participated in a “[bike] ride for change.” They flew BLM flags and biked around the park. The event was organized in conjunction with the bake sale, by Rian Gayle, a Black, Deaf community leader. #Salem#salemoregon#oregon#BLMprotests#salemor
A representative from Marion County helping with volunteer sign-ins says that they have had hundreds of community members volunteer to help with the shelter. To volunteer you can visit the Marion County website. #Salem#salemoregon#oregon#oregonwildfires#wildfires#santiamfire
