North Tulsa neighbors rallied on Thursday night, saying they're tired of feeling forgotten.

They've formed a group called Associated Community Organizations for Reform Now or ACORN.  They rallied at an overgrown lot that they say illustrates their point.

ACORN claims the city is not providing grocery stores, service stations or even taking care of mowing empty lots.  They say, as taxpayers, they should receive equal treatment.

"We ain't looking for a hand out, we're just looking for a hand up that's all," said ACORN's Patricia Walker.

ACORN believes north Tulsa will be ignored as long as residents don't speak up.
