The Youth Liberation Front (YLF) issued a call for widespread demonstrations to be held on July 25th, 2020 to show solidarity with ongoing resistance in Portland against federal invasions. This call to action was a response to the deployment of federal troops beyond Portland, which the YLF viewed as an attempt to suppress the uprising against police brutality. The YLF, comprised of various local chapters and alliances, urged abolitionists, particularly youth, to organize these demonstrations demanding justice for victims of police violence. They explicitly stated that reform efforts were insufficient and advocated for the complete dismantling of policing.
