ICYMI: The judge in Wednesday's hearing delayed the DA's dismissal of charges. In other words, she's giving Attorney General Rob Bonta one week to take up the case since DA Jenkins doesn't want to.

This week Zionist settler mobs protected by Israeli Occupation Forces stormed the occupied village of Huwara, surrounded it and attempted to burn it to the ground. Israeli human rights group @btselem and many others have called the settler attacks a “pogrom” to describe the attacks on the village. Pogrom is a Russian word meaning “to wreak havoc” and typically describes the violence by Russians against Jewish people, particularly officially-mandated slaughter.

Many are blaming the new Israeli government as the cause of the unimaginable violence Palestinians, but the origin of these atrocities is not the Israeli government but Zionism. This isn’t a “loss of control” this is exactly what Israeli control looks like. The settlers carry out the attack, the military secures it, the politicians back it. It’s a synergy.

On March 31, 2023, Judge Lucretia Clemons of the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas denied political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal’s legal appeal. Judge Clemons’ decision ludicrously claims that newly discovered evidence proving that key witnesses at Mumia’s trial were paid by (or received favours from) the District Attorney in exchange for their false testimony was “not material” to showing that the trial was unfair!

Mumia Abu-Jamal is innocent and should never have spent a day in jail. This decision shows that Mumia will never receive justice in the capitalist courts. Only mass demonstrations can win his release. Join us at a rally calling to Free Mumia Abu-Jamal!

Mumia is Innocent! Free Mumia Now!

First – we need you to show up to support our unhoused nneighbors in West Oakland who are being displaced starting next Monday, April 10!

We got word last week that unfortunately the City of Oakland will be moving forward with evicting the last remaining residents of the Wood Street community in West Oakland. They claim to be clearing this lot to build “affordable” housing, but the reality is no one who is currently living there will be able to afford the proposed housing.

The expansive Wood Street settlement at one time stretched for more than 25 city blocks with an estimated 300 people living there; some residents have been there for nearly a decade! The Wood Street Commons, home to upwards of 60 people, is the last remaining segment of the settlement, and is now facing displacement with no permanent shelter options available.

When: Monday, April 10 – Friday, April 14 and Monday, April 17 – Friday, April 21; Starting at 8:30am and ending around 5-6pm every day
 

(Critical mass is needed first thing Monday morning and for press conference at 10am, Monday)

Meeting location: There will be a resource table close to the site (near 18th & Wood St) where you can drop off donations and find a point person who can give volunteers further direction

Instructions: Residents are in need of witnesses. Bring charged phones and battery pack if you have them. Be prepared to document. If recording, please focus the view on law enforcement and city workers. Wearing closed toed shoes, gloves and face mask recommended. Bring water, gatorade, ready-to-eat snacks, and heavy duty trash bags to donate at the resource table. Donations of cat carriers, dog leashes & collars are also welcome. Please try to park a few blocks away to give space for residents to move.

Secondly – Landlords are mobilizing against permanent teenant protections and your voice is needed on Tuesday, April 11!

Black renters are TWICE as likely to face eviction as white renters. The eviction moratorium will soon end in Oakland and we are calling on all tenants and allies to come out in person to Oakland City Hall to speak in support of strengthening permanent tenant protections.

Although this proposal is hardly radical and is more than fair to landlords, they are guaranteed to turn out in numbers to oppose it. If YOU are a tenant and the eviction moratorium has helped you, your voice is needed!

What: Show up to Oakland City Hall to Stop the Eviction Surge!
When: Tuesday, April 11
Where:

• Press Conference @ 1pm at 1425 Harrison Street, Oakland
• City Council Meeting @ 4pm at Oakland City Hall, 1 Frank H. Ogawa Plaza, Oakland, CA 94612 (start gathering at 2pm)

Note: We’re asking for as many people as possible to show up to City Hall (*masks required*) and begin to take a seat in the chambers by 2pm�sadly, a fringe group of landlords and extremmists plan to pack the chambers to erase the voice of renters, so we must fill the chambers! Public comment will begin shortly after 4pm.

If there isn’t any way you can make it in person, you can also join at 4pm by video conference (Zoom), or by dialing (669) 900-6833, Meeting ID: 861 3539 1880 (if asked for a participant ID or code, press #).

Your community is counting on you to take action!

United in struggle and liberation,

Anti Police-Terror Project

At the end of April, three of the world’s largest funders of fossil fuels will hold their Annual General Meetings: Wells Fargo, Citibank, and Bank of America. These three banks alone have loaned more than $789 billion to coal, oil, and gas companies since the Paris Agreement was adopted in 2015.

With allies across the country – we are going to shut down, occupy, and disrupt business at the global headquarters of all three banks the day before their annual shareholder meetings. their most important meetings of the year. Citi’s HQ in New York, Bank of America’s HQ in Charlotte, and Wells Fargo’s HQ in San Francisco will each be subject to massive, disruptive and impossible-to-ignore protests.
Yes, it’s an early wake-up call, but we would love your support in downtown San Francisco as we disrupt the business as usual that is killing the planet.

Learn more and RSVP here.

WE NEED YOU to keep us winning, to secure our Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) for E12th which will be voted  at Oakland City Council’s CED meeting.

We hear there may be turnout to throw curve balls at our project, so we’d love your voices of support. Our project is committed to the diversity that won this campaign as outlined in the ENA from the BIPOC neighbors who most risk displacement to those we want to hire to build this housing. We want council members of the CED to: pass the E12th ENA for 100% affordable housing, support deeply affordable housing that the Peoples Proposal delivers, and keep Public Land for Public Good.

HERE’S THE ORDER OF IMPORTANCE FOR TURN OUT. Will you take action (at least email)?!

1. Public comment in person at CED meeting 4/25 Tue 1:30pm. City Hall (1 Frank Ogawa Plaza). Fill out a speaker card with the City Clerk, for item #6 on E12th.
2. Public comment by zoom or phone at CED meeting 4/25 Tue 1:30pm, for item #6 on E12th. Submit an Electronic Speaker Card to speak via zoom or phone by emailing CityClerk@OaklandCa.Gov to get on stack before the item comes up. Speaker card link: https://www.oaklandca.gov/services/fill-out-a-speaker-card
3. Email City Council by tomorrow morning to support our E12th ENA at council@oaklandca.gov. Here’s a sample message:

Subject: Support E12th Peoples Proposal ENA

Dear Oakland City Council and members of CED,

I’m a supporter of the E12th community’s campaign for public land for public good, and the Peoples Proposal for 100% affordable housing on our city’s public land on E12th St. Please vote yes on the Exclusive Negotiating Agreement to build the Peoples Proposal for deeply affordable housing. Thank you! (your name)

We appreciate you for taking action. Let’s keep winning!
