May Day at the Auctions

On May 1, 2012, the auction protestors apparently succeeded in stopping all the sales of homes the banks had scheduled for auctions. The auctioneers stuck to only postponements and cancellations on the sidewalk in front of City Hall steps. That means we probably kept around 16 families in their homes for a bit longer. Congratulations and thanks to everyone who helped out!

The details (we don’t know whether some of these auctions may have been delayed for reasons other than the auction action, whether all units were occupied, and all of this information subject to change by the trustees of the auctions):

Thanks again to Becca Gourevich for snapping most of the photos below. Thanks also to the Occupiers who gave us an energy boost when they marched by on their way to 888 Turk St.
