On Saturday, around 200 people went to a potluck outside the former Ada County Courthouse in Boise. They were there to support a homeless demonstration which has been on the lawn for two weeks.
Another 70 people gathered across the street in a counter protest, condemning the ongoing demonstration.
Today on Idaho Matters, we learn what happened on Saturday when the two sides met — and what's motivating each side. Our guests are Ian Stevenson and Sally Krutzig are reporters with the Idaho Statesman and covered the event and the homelesstent camp demonstration.
As Senior Producer of our live daily talk show Idaho Matters, I’m able to indulge my love of storytelling and share all kinds of information (I was probably a Town Crier in a past life!). My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.
