East Side Pride

this journal entry posted on January.21.2004 by AMPro

Yesterday morning I went out with East Side PRIDE to Niagara Mohawk to demand that they fix the street lights on the East Side of Buffalo. East Side Pride had a group of about 12 senior citizens, and I gotta say... It was much more fun doing an action with senior citizens than it is with young people. Older folks seem to actually believe that they can change things whereas young people always seem to think that whatever we're doing is doomed to failure. That seems like it's the opposite of the way it should be, but I'm just really thankful that I got to go along and I hope I can work with them again soon. What a great group of folks.

Oh, and we did get a meeting with the people at Niagara Mohawk. And after 3 different security guards told us we were trespassing and we had to leave they finally had a corporate officer come out and talk to us and take our list of broken street lights and agree to meet with us.

Good work.
