Portland: Report Back from NYE Noise Demo

Submitted to It’s Going Down

On New Year’s Eve, before the festivities began, some anarchists gathered outside the Multnomah County Justice Center to make some noise for all our comrades who had to spend the holiday in captivity. We played anti police and prison music from our mobile sound system that could be heard anywhere in a nearly 4 block radius.

Chants were also sung; “brick by brick, wall by wall, we will make these prisons fall.” The prisoners could be seen through their windows with their fists in the air, flashing their cell lights along to the music.
