EVICTION = ELDER ABUSE
KEEP 100-YEAR-OLD IRIS CANADA IN HER HOME
Come tell Sheriff Hennessy NOT to evict our beloved elder!

Press Conference TODAY Thursday, Feb. 9 at noon
670 Page Street, San Francisco

Yesterday evening, Judge Robertson ordered Sheriff Hennessy to evict Ms. Iris Canada anytime without notice. This order could cause serious harm and even death, since Iris is in fragile health. Imagine if you were 100 years old and knew the sheriff could come drag you out of your home at any moment. Join us today in front of her home to demand the Sheriff resist this inhumane order.

Background:
Ms. Iris Canada has lived in her Fillmore home for over 50 years. She deserves to live peacefully in her home without further harassment. Join us in standing up for one of the oldest remaining black elders in San Francisco!

Since the Judge has ordered an eviction without proper notice, we are preparing to be ready at any time. We’ll be sure to update you as soon as we here more. Stay on high Alert!  

A huge showing of support and resilience will send a clear message that we will not stand for such human rights violations.

*  If you got this email forwarded to you, you can sign up for the Eviction Defense Emergency response list here.
If SF won't give our 100-year-old elder sanctuary, we'll lock arms and keep her safe ourselves.
