In New Orleans, plans to demolish 4,500 units of public housing have been put on hold, at least temporarily. On Saturday, New Orleans police arrested at least three people at a protest outside one of the public housing complexes slated for demolition. Among the arrested was filmmaker and journalist Rick Rowley of Big Noise Films. Eyewitnesses said police manhandled Rowley, who was filming the nonviolent protest. Police also arrested Cheri Honkala, founder of the Kensington Welfare Rights Union in Philadelphia. The city council is expected to vote on Thursday on whether to grant demolition permits at the four public housing sites.
