We're #HamOnt artists and musicians confronting art's relationship to gentrification, and organizing for housing justice and a more equitable city.tinyurl.com/HamiltonArtist…Joined July 2020
Join us on Feb 26th at 6PM to showcase what “Our Stories and Our Histories” means to you! Black community members are invited to share their artwork, poems, favourite books, photos, and anything else that embodies the theme. Tea, coffee, community! @SACHAhamont@djnontario#BHM
Our pal Shawn Selway passed last night. He was an activist and writer and millwright and researcher and historian and a lot more. We learned a lot from him about how to be as a person and in the city. He was kind and persistent. We'll miss him a lot. legacy.com/ca/obituaries/…
While council has been having dialogue, folks went through the coldest night of this winter and there were only two warming centres open overnight.
We need action. Folks will die and have died while council is still talking about the issue from their heated homes over zoom.

Anyone who says the upcoming trustee elections don't matter isn't seeing the bigger picture. School boards are complicit in gentrification, in the private sector and the desired of developers being prioritized over affordable housing. #HamOnt#onted#onpoli

On Nov 24 volunteers with @HamOntESN & residents responded to an encampment tear down - 2 of them were arrested. We support @HCCI1 & others calling for charges to be dropped & to stop the evictions. Sign and share this petition -->

Learn more & take action at @HamOntESN and hcci.ca/drop-the-charg…. These youth should not have to live with false charges of "assault" and "obstructing justice" for helping to feed & house their neighbours. We need to #EndEncampmentEvictions and reallocate city dollars humanely.
Rally tomorrow at 55 Bay St N in #HamOnt. Land theft and the entitlement of corporations and government to force their will is at the heart of both colonialism and gentrification, from coast to coast. See you all there.

While Farr wastes his time calling random activists violent, we are organizing to make sure he's not re-elected.
To all Cllrs complicit in the deaths of homeless people: go ahead, waste time attacking us online. We'll see you at the ballot box AND on the streets in protest. 4/
I'm tired of politicans demanding we leave their personal lives out of politics. To meet them in committee from 9 to 5 where they laugh at us. To suggest policies that will be tossed. We're doing the best we can with 0 resources. People like Farr are too rich & petty to care 3/
Elected officials make more money than most will see in their lifetimes. Farr can afford to do what the rest of us do: call his insurance. Instead, he's using this to fear-monger against those who disagree w him.
This isn't a joke, houseless people will die when snow falls. 2/
Cllr Farr connecting his car damage (which happens often in #HamOnt) to activists is absurd.
Linking that to peaceful protests is a form of repression against activists w no money & less power. A coffin from a ceremony for those who died from homelessness is art not violence 1/
Thissss!! 👇👇👇 #HamOnt needs to acknowledge shelters don’t have enough room, let alone being a possible option for everyone. Where is your housing plan going into this second #COVID19 winter, @cityofhamilton?

To push #HamOnt towards better urban planning and deeply affordable housing, it's helpful to know where it has been and what choices got us here. If it's not too rainy, we'll be learning this tomorrow! Register by today at 4 PM. Details: mailchi.mp/9c1fca07c4e8/c…
