Our @ArciniegaStreet crew just left Centennial Park after giving our houseless neighbors sandwiches and snack bags. These are human beings that Anchorage Mayor Dave Bronson has left for dead, out of sight in bear country & victim to the elements.
Here is what we witnessed. 🧵
We witnessed children outside barefoot + in sandals w/only soaked sweaters as a source of warmth. The area is flooded. No umbrellas. Hardly any tarps. Everyone soaking wet & shivering, standing in line for food, frantically searching for coffee as a means to stay warm. #Anchorage
