The following reportback was submitted to us anonymously for publication:
“On the evening of June 14th, 2025, a mostly-Anarchist “demonstration” was planned on Phoenix’s Roosevelt Row. While details of the events were left sparse, the location and a time of 8PM were disseminated widely on social media as well as at other local protests earlier that same day.

In the late afternoon of May 12th, a small crowd convened along the street at North Wilmot Road in Tucson, Arizona just outside of St. Joseph’s Hospital. The crowd numbered somewhere in the range of 50-100 people: an eclectic mix of local anarchists, subculturally-affiliated 20-or-30-somethings, boomer activists, petition circulators, journalists, at least one priest, and representatives of various activist organizations, including Derechos Humanos and the local Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) chapter—each clad in their usual bright red shirts.
