On 1/20/23, anarchists in Portland, Oregon went after the UPS shipping center in Portland in retaliation after a comrade was recently murdered by the Atlanta Police.Anarchists broke somewhere between 10-15 large windows and started multiple small fires within the building. UPS is one of the biggest companies currently donating to the Cop City Project in Atlanta.On 1/18/23, Atlanta police attempted a raid in the forest that was being protected by forest defenders and once they showed up, they opened fire and killed a forest defender.
We want to express our love toward Tortuguita, who waalso known as Cami, as well as to all their comrades and loved ones.Atlanta police stole a comrade and friend to many people from us on 1/18/23. A few broken windows will never undo what the Atlanta police did, but hopefully continued actions can bring the change that Cami wished for and hoped to see one day.We call for more actions directly toward the companies that are donating to and funding the Cop City project in Atlanta. Forest defenders have a right to stay in the forest, and groups will continue to retaliate until the Cop City Project is cancelled.Love from PDX to ATL
