“These are the businesses (and literally one, single resident) that signed a petition to sweep Cal Anderson Park. No further comment,” Baker tweeted under the pseudonym “@ComradeFlute.”
“If we do stop this sweep, that’s a victory, and we can carry that energy to the next action,” Baker said.
“I work full time as a childcare worker and I’m a substitute teacher, idk what makes you think I’d be unemployed,” he wrote when responding to another Twitter user’s comment.
Baker previously shared that he was a “history teacher, I’m from the Olympic Peninsula before moving to Seattle for school and work.”
“The police exist, and have always existed, for one purpose: to uphold the current social order by inflicting violence on American citizens.”
“”This is what the police did when they were slave-catchers, this is what the police did when they turned fire-hoses on Civil Rights protesters, this is what the police are doing now when they teargas us, beat us, and shoot us with rubber bullets.”
