More than a hundred attendees showed up at the Phillips Community Center to address homelessness in Minneapolis in the wake of the recent closure of a homeless encampment known as the “Wall of Forgotten Natives.” Impassioned attendees shouted out questions and interrupted city officials who were supposed to talk first, causing officials to flip the agenda’s order and give the floor to attendees.

    Shit is concerning for sure… hate watching the growing number of folks urban camping. Those going through the toughest times and they keep getting kicked while they’re down. It’s about to get very cold here too.

      I don’t know how they expect people to get back on their feet when they’re constantly destroying their shelter and chasing them around the city.
