Hands Across Hawthorne

Hands Across Hawthorne was a rally held at the Hawthorne Bridge in Portland, Oregon, on May 29, 2011, in response to an attack on a gay couple one week prior for holding hands while walking across the bridge. According to the couple and Portland Police Bureau, a group of five men followed Brad Forkner and Christopher Rosevear along the bridge before they were attacked. News of the assault, which was condemned by Portland's openly gay mayor, Sam Adams, and its police chief, Mike Reese, spread throughout the Pacific Northwest and the United States. The attack prompted volunteers from the Q Center, a nonprofit organization that supports the LGBT community, to form street patrols as a means of monitoring downtown.
Several LGBT and human rights organizations sponsored Hands Across Hawthorne in response to the attack. With the purpose of linking hands across the entire span on the Hawthorne Bridge, more than 4,000 people attended the rally despite its being publicized by only a single Facebook page just 72 hours prior. Forkner and Rosevear spoke at the rally, as did Mayor Adams and other community leaders. The event received attention throughout the United States, and ''Instinct'' magazine acknowledged Portland's ability to gather a crowd of 4,000 in support of the LGBT community despite rainy weather. On June 5, residents of Spokane, Washington, held a similar hand-holding rally called "Hands Across Monroe", crossing the Monroe Street Bridge in Riverfront Park.
