Demonstrators and self-described anarchists are attempting to form an autonomous zone—similar to the one that was set up in Seattle in June—in Portland, with some calling it the Chinook Land Autonomous Territory, or CLAT.
A Twitter account called the “PNW Liberation Front” wrote on Tuesday: “Barricade at the Chinook Land Autonomous Territory (#CLAT). People are needed here ALL night long, especially in the early morning! Get on over rn! Bring some tents.”
