The Portland State University Student Union: Your friendly, neighborhood, radical student action team. #DisarmPSU





Good morning. Today is a good one to learn about the student and facult’s demands to #disarmPSU.





For those who don't know... Jason Washington was trying to break up a fight - to de-escalate and bring safety to a situation at PSU. He was shot by campus security 17 times. @PortlandStateSU and others have been fighting for YEARS to disarm campus security. WE PROTECT US!


Tomorrow: Monday, June 29th at 7pm, there is a march & vigil for Jason Washington. It will mark two years to the date since his death at the hands of Portland State campus police (CPSO.) Please join the community memorializing Jason and demanding justice.




A group of OSHU grad students have been offering free medical care and supplies to downtown protesters for 15 nights straight. They say Saturday night's arrest and intimidation from PPB won't stop their work. "It's clear the community needs us." portlandmercury.com/blogtown/2020/…


While covering protests I was slammed by a baton from behind by police. Just before that I was shoved hard. I'd made it clear I was press (both hands up, ID in left hand, camera in right). This happened sometime between 12-1 Friday night.
