“Members of "ACORN," The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, marched to the Wellington Webb building as part of their campaign.”

“The protesters wore black clothing to symbolize what they called "the death of the American dream of home ownership." Among the group were several homeowners who are now faced with foreclosure.”
