Day 32 of protests in Portland Oregon. We already have the beginnings of a barricade starting to form on Main Street, in front of the Justice Center. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

People have been getting the materials for the barricades from this big hole a few blocks away from the Justice Center. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

First time I’ve seen barricades like this set up by protesters at the Justice Center. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

The Portland Police Bureau have tried making announcements on the LRAD twice now, but it keeps cutting out very early on into their announcement. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

The police are telling people to get off the road & onto the sidewalk, & saying not to block the street with cables or barricades.

A little late for that last one.

A protester with a megaphone noted- “We outnumber the police, they’re scared of us.”

Police continue to order people to exit the road. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

Took a walk around the block and saw one undercover car pull into the police garage. Didn’t see any other police. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

A prisoner in the Justice Center flashes their cell lights in support of the protest, we’ve seen this a few times the past month. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

Police on LRAD have now declared an unlawful assembly and are threatening arrest and saying “Riot control agents will be used in this area.” #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

Police have advanced and used munitions, pepper spray, and stun grenages. Videos soon. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter

Here is the police initiating violence at tonight‘s protest in Portland. #sacredfence #justicecenter #Portlandprotest #portland #blacklivesmatter
