Description
-
Members of Curtis Sliwa's Guardian Angels Safety Patrol, a citizens' security patrol organization, walk alongside a road. The Guardian Angels' Portland chapter was formed in 1983. In 1984, they became involved in the housing of homeless persons that had been abandoned in Portland during the Rajneesh crisis. According to many reports, the Rajneeshpuram commune had bussed in homeless people from across the country in order to register them as pro-Rajneesh voters in the November elections of 1984. Soon afterward, they abandoned many of the homeless people in other communities. This photograph was taken during a Guardian Angels demonstrating, where they were protesting a lack of action on the issue by Governor Atiyeh.
