Direct PATCO Resident Testimony: SS Sparks

“So basically we like, down here we came to live and be a community for the simple fact that we been basically like barred from other spaces. There's a love we've created as a community, being homeless, being out here in the streets trying to survive. So it's like, it's not what it looks like, like we're just trying to bully the subway or nothing like that. It's more like we came for like a cure for our pains and shit. Like, we come down here, we don't feel ashamed or vulnerability going through things that we share with our brothers. So that's what it is. It's more that for us. It's not nothing else, it's a survival thing.”

Shared with permission. Stay tuned for more PATCO resident testimony, and come out to defend against the eviction on Wednesday, May 5th by 9am!

Direct PATCO Resident Testimony: Skye

“I'm Skye. I was incarcerated last year on April 20th. I got out, I lost my apartment. They said it was abandoned. Rent paid in full, they still took it. So that's what brought me down here. I been down here since, now they tellin me I gotta go somewhere. Shelters is not for me. Corona is out, I don't wanna be that close to too many people. I like where I'm at. I'm comfortable. I can come and go as I please. I don't like rules and regulations at all. I'm 45 years old and I'm ready to move on and step up. So y'all stick with us, keep us in prayer. God is good.”

Shared with permission. Come out to support Skye and others in the PATCO station encampment facing eviction tomorrow at 9am at 15th and Locust!
