After the screening of “Waking Dream” we’ll be joined by a panel for an engaging discussion that broadens immigration discourse beyond DACA, and provides concrete ways to act. The panel will include the filmmaker, directly-impacted community members and community organizations.
Panelists:
Javier Lopez Quintana (moderator) – DreamSF Fellow, Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity
Javier Lopez Quintana was born in Michoacán, Mexico; at four years old, he migrated to the United States with his parents. Quintana got his B.A in Political Science and a Film and Media Certificate from UC Berkeley. His parents’ immigration status and his own led him to work at a shampoo factory for close to a year. Quintana saw the detrimental conditions laborers worked under, especially undocumented workers. This was a pivotal moment in Quintana’s life that influenced his decision to organize with immigrant communities for their collective safety and liberation. Quintana is currently working with the Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity as a Dream SF Fellow.
Borey (“PJ”) Ai – Reentry Navigator, Asian Prisoner Support Committee
PJ was born in a refugee camp in Thailand where his family fled to escape the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia. PJ and his family entered the U.S. as refugees when he was only 4-years-old. When PJ was 14-years-old he was tried as an adult for a crime and given a life sentence, making him one of the youngest “lifers” in California. While incarcerated, PJ transformed his life, and after serving 20 years in prison, he was granted parole. However, PJ was immediately transferred to ICE jails and spent 18 months incarcerated by ICE, fighting his deportation case. Although PJ was released on May 10th, 2018, he remains under ICE supervision and could be deported during the next round of deportations to Cambodia – a country he has never set foot in.
Miriam Noriega – State Program Director, Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity
Miriam’s passion for immigrant justice derives from her personal experience of being a first-generation immigrant in the U.S. She has been involved in the immigrant rights movement since 2006, specifically the DREAMer movement, a historic youth-lead activist movement that won them the benefits of DACA. Her ministerial call is empowering immigrant communities to discover their innate source of healing in spirituality, and building bridges across different social groups.
Valeria Suarez – Community Organizer, CIYJA
Valeria Suárez is an undocumented queer organizer from Lima, Peru. During the past few years she has focused on supporting deportation defense cases to free undocumented community members from detention. She is currently a Summer Cultivator for the California Immigrant Youth Justice Alliance. Her work is centered around creating spaces for undocumented youth to learn deportation defense models in order to protect themselves and their communities.
Theo Rigby – Director, Waking Dream
Theo Rigby is an award-winning documentary filmmaker who has been creating stories about the immigrant experience in the U.S. for over the last decade–he is the founder of iNation Media. www.inationmedia.com

P. E. Moskowitz wrote the renowned bestseller, “How To Kill a City,” which revealed the systemic forces behind the gentrification ruining such major American cities as San Francisco, New York, New Orleans and Detroit. Now, with “The Case Against Free Speech” he exposes the powerful forces and political machinations currently defining free speech, a term that has been defined and redefined to suit those in power, to give them the right to push their agenda. What’s more, our investment in the First Amendment has long obscured an uncomfortable truth: free speech is impossible in an unequal society in which a few corporations joined with the ultra-wealthy can bankroll political movements that disenfranchise millions of voters, while our government routinely silences critics of racism and capitalism.
Weaving together history and reporting from Charlottesville, Skokie, Standing Rock and many college campuses, the author argues that all these flashpoints reveal much more about the dire state of our democracy than they do about simply who is allowed to say what. This daring book takes readers directly into the battle raging over this foundational concept, from the back rooms of think-tanks where the very definition of free speech is influenced by billionaires like the Koch Brothers, to “safe spaces” on college campuses, to neo-Nazi rallies protected by the police. Moskowitz dives into the history of how free speech rights have always been reserved for those in power.
Our current definition of free speech merely replicates power while dissuaging dissent. A bright new ideal emerges in “The Case against Free Speech” – as the author makes a clear case for using speech as a tool for exposing the truth, demanding equality, and fighting for all our civil liberties.
P.E.Moskowitz is the author of the bestselling “How To Kill a City,” and a writer for Al Jazeera, The Guardian, the New York Times, Wired, the New Republic and Vice.

Join the East Bay DSA’s Labor Committee for their regular Beer and Roses social. Hang out with other members who are interested in the labor movement, hear about what’s happening in EBDSA Labor Committee & learn how you can get involved.
The RPA’s August movie night will feature “POWER TO HEAL,” which tells a poignant chapter in the historic struggle to secure equal and adequate access to healthcare for all Americans. Central to the story is the tale of how a new national program, Medicare, was used to mount a dramatic, coordinated effort that desegregated thousands of hospitals across the country practically overnight. Potluck starts at 6:30, followed by a screening at 7pm and discussion at 8pm.
The Amazon = LIFE & Capitalism = DEATH
It’s time for our August action!! EVERYONE is welcome!
The Amazon is burning at an unprecedented speed. Ranchers and cattle farmers are burning territory clearing it and creating pastures for cattle, and big agriculture to take over and buy their property. If a section of the rainforest is burned to the ground, it is then open for takeover. Indigenous people, animals, plants, everything is losing their homes and lives in this historic decimation of the lungs of our planet.
President Jair Bolsonaro initially blamed environmentalists for the fires, and later announced the country didn’t have any money to fight the fires. The devastation is nearly beyond comprehension and the consequences on the entire planet are unimaginable.
As many of you following Brasil issues have probably noticed, there has been a very public escalation of violence, murders and intimidation of indigenous people and villages in the last couple of months. Uncontacted tribes are being photographed, and witnessing the outside world, deforestation of the Brasilian Amazon is at unprecedented high, leaders are being murdered and the government is lying to the world about all of this and we must take action.
This action is standing in solidarity with all Indigenous people and territories in the Brasilian Amazon. We are doing a call out to the Bay Area and Northern California native people from all up and down the Americas, and all people here, to come and stand.
Not One More Drop of Indigenous Blood!
We talk about the Condor ~ Eagle prophecy so frequently and this is part of fulfilling the prophecy. Standing together as indigenous people is where our strength comes from. This is a call out for all native people to bring us your songs, to brings us your dances, to please come and lay down your prayers for your relatives fighting for their lives in Brasil. This will be an action of prayer offerings from the North to the South. We all have our many traditional clothes, songs and offerings for prayer and we are asking you to bring yours on behalf of indigenous people being murdered and violently intimidated in Brasil. The Amazon is being cared for by our relatives there and we stand with them, in their defense.
We will be blocking off the street in front of the Brasilian Consulate again, and again will be doing a street mural. We will have many signs again, puppets and music. This action is all about prayer so please only bring prayer and love. We invite you to bring flowers to offer. Please bring your hearts ready to have a powerful action of prayer for all we hold dear. Everyone is welcome and desperately needed.
Let us fill that space with people, let us fill the air with songs, let us flood the street with prayer and let it be heard in Brasil that the Eagle ~ Condor prophecy is real and we are standing solidly in the knowledge that we are making it come true.
PLEASE NOTE: If you would like to come and offer your traditional song and/or dance prayers PLEASE MESSAGE THE PAGE OR EMAIL US AT BrasilSolidaritySFBay [at] Protonmail.com

City of Oakland says not so fast to sale of half the Coliseum site to the A’s
Phil Matier Aug. 4, 2019 Updated: Aug. 4, 2019 6:43 a.m.
https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/philmatier/article/City-of-Oakland-says-not-so-fast-to-sale-of-half-14277040.php
The phone lines are burning up in the East Bay over a move by the Oakland City Council that could throw a wrench into the deal for the Oakland A’s new waterfront ballpark.
At issue is Alameda County’s half share of the 155 acre Oakland-Alameda Coliseum site, which it plans to sell to the A’s for $85 million.
The city of Oakland owns the other half and would retain its share in the site. But some City Council members say the county should sell its share to the city, even though it’s unclear if the city has the money to buy out the county.
The A’s have said that the revenues earned from developing the Coliseum site, where the team now plays, is a key component to financing the ballpark at the Port of Oakland’s Howard Terminal.
Nonetheless, sources said the Oakland City Council instructed the city attorney in a closed meeting before going on summer break to draft a letter to the county opposing the sale and raising the possibility of a legal challenge if the deal goes through.
To date however, no letter has been sent.
“I think they are rattling their sabers,” said Alameda County Supervisor Scott Haggerty.
Oakland council members we spoke with confirmed having voted to send the letter, but declined to comment publicly because the matter is still under discussion.
Oakland Port Privatization Scam By Billionaire John Fisher, Demos & Union Bureaucrats
https://youtu.be/1hu_s7A4Yc8
Bay Area ILWU Local 10 and Local 34 longshore workers held a press conference on June 13, 2019 to protest the privatization of the Port Of Oakland Howard Terminal for billionaire A’s owner John Fisher’s new stadium.
ILWU 10 former Secretary Treasurer Clarence Thomas and ILWU Local 34 president Keith Shanklin talked about the threat to not only union maritime jobs but the gentrification of West Oakland by the planned 4,000 condos for more than $1 million each.
They also attacked East Bay Democrats Rob Bonta and CA Senator Nancy Skinner for their “fast track” bills that would override zoning and health and safety protections for the A’s owner John Fisher. Fisher and his family including Doris Fisher also run the union busting charter chains Rocketship and KIPP which are siphoning off hundreds of millions of dollars from public schools in Oakland and througout the state and country.
ILWU also challenged the role of the Alameda Labor Council leadership and that union bureaucrats who are pushing the stadium regardless of the fact that it would destroy the unionized jobs in the port of Oakland of all maritime workers who work at the port.
The Port of Oakland is the 3rd largest port on the West Coast and shippers would be driven out of the Port if this gentrifcation and stadium in built on the bay port property of Howard Terminal. The terminal is used by truckers and also to train longshore workers in the port.
The Oakland City council voted unanimously to support Bonta and Skinner’s bills to “fast track” the privatization of the port and the building of Fisher’s stadium and 4,000 $1 million dollar condos.
