These are the first 65 arrested on Saturday, August 20, 2011. They were forced to spend two days in jail under pretty awful conditions -- the women had to sleep on a cold concrete floor with plastic wrap taken from their food packages wrapped around their arms and legs to keep warm and served bologna and processed cheese sandwiches on white bread. The Park Service tried to intimidate those coming after to deter them from sitting-in. It didn't work -- the sit-in continued.
