Teed Off Tenants To Target Deutsch Bank Golf Tournament
- "A Hub activist group is taking direct aim at this week’s Deutsche Bank Championship golf tournament in a protest over foreclosures, casting a cloud over one of the region’s major corporate and professional sports events. Dozens of protesters from City Life plan to rally outside the Four Seasons tomorrow night at the PGA tournament’s kickoff dinner, amid a dispute with the German bank over its stance on foreclosures. And the Jamaica Plain-based group said it will take its act on the road and protest outside the four-day tournament that starts Friday in Norton unless it can come to an agreement before then with the bank. [...] The Hub group’s actions come as it pressures the bank to take a firm stand against the eviction of apartment tenants in cases where the landlord has lost the property to foreclosure."
