In the wake of the indiscriminate attack by Palestinian military forces from Hamas, which has left some 1,200 people dead and 2,000 wounded, the Israeli government is blaming Palestinian’s for Hamas’s attack, and promising to make Palestinians pay “an unprecedented price.” Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has announced that Israel has begun a “long and difficult war” to turn Gaza into “rubble.” President Biden has said that U.S. support for Israel’s massacre is “rock solid and unwavering.”
Since 1967, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank have been militarily occupied and controlled by Israel. Israel has used the occupation to further its genocidal erasure of the Palestinian people to take more of their land, and force Palestinians to live like prisoners, under constant violence, or trapped in Gaza, under a constant state of siege. And the U.S. has supported Israel every step of the way.
We cannot be silent in the face of this slaughter of Palestinians. We must stand up and demand:
END THE ISRAELI WAR AND OCCUPATION OF PALESTINE!
DOWN WITH THE GENOCIDAL ISRAELI STATE!
NO U.S. AID to ISRAEL!
Join us for a presentation and discussion about the current situation, what has led to this, and what role we can play here in the U.S.

For our October meeting we are reading Parts 5 and 6 of Jackson Rising Redux: Building the Future in the Present. (PM Press, Amazon). For our November meeting we are reading Parts 7, 8 and the Afterwords.
Mississippi is the poorest state in the US, with the highest percentage of Black people and a history of vicious racial terror. Black resistance at a time of global health, economic, and climate crisis is the backdrop and context for the drama captured in this new and revised collection of essays. Cooperation Jackson, founded in 2014 in Mississippi’s capital to develop an economically uplifting democratic “solidarity economy,” is anchored by a network of worker-owned, self-managed cooperative enterprises. The organization developed in the context of the historic election of radical Mayor Chokwe Lumumba, lifetime human rights attorney. Subsequent to Lumumba’s passing less than one year after assuming office, the network developed projects both inside and outside of the formal political arena. In 2020, Cooperation Jackson became the center for national and international coalition efforts, bringing together progressive peoples from diverse trade union, youth, church, and cultural movements. This long-anticipated anthology details the foundations behind those successful campaigns. It unveils new and ongoing strategies and methods being pursued by the movement for grassroots-centered Black community control and self-determination, inspiring partnership and emulation across the globe.

The Oakland Greens Virtual Town Hall
Can non-monogamy be a family value? — Join the discussion — The Green Party has many Consensual Ethical Non-Monogamous (CENM) members. When the Oakland Greens added CENM language to promotional graphics and merchandise, it sparked a lively debate. Check our YouTube channel for those discussions. That debate gave way to having the discussion for one of our townhalls. So for our final VTH event of the year, we will discuss the idea of whether CENM is a Green Party family value. Our special guest for this event has over twenty years’ experience living this ideal. Join our regular panel as we deep dive into another progressive issue. Go to oaklandgreens.org/events, Eventbrite Oakland Greens, or Facebook Oakland Greens. For any questions email contact@oaklandgreens.org or oaklandgreenparty@gmail.com
Vicente has been CENM since 1999. CENM directly navigated Vicente through their life journey to the social justice movement. Vicente’s experience includes working with the Bay Area’s Midnight Special Law Collective of the National Lawyers Guild (NLG) for five years, and the Prevention of Trafficking project for the Oakland Greens since 2019. They also have conducted a Radical Love workshop on prejudice within the Poly/Kink community and organized a sex worker union. Since 2012, Vicente has been the Event Producer for the Oakland Greens.

Open discussion.
Palestinian-American Professor Rashid Khalidi has described Gaza as “a pressure cooker” that “had to explode.” Israeli holocaust scholar Raz Segal has decried Israel’s assault on Gaza as “a textbook case of genocide.”
The Palestinian military action in Gaza this week shows that “the colonial powers can no longer believe they can force people to live under the conditions Israel has subjected Palestinians to and expect no retaliation of the oppressed” says Khalidi. The Palestinian rebellion is a historic development in the Palestinian struggle that also signals a paradigm shift in the world situation.
After brief presentations, ICSS will host an open discussion on this topic. Bring your comments and questions.
For background, see:
21-minute video, “Why is there a Gaza ‘Strip’ at all?” by Israeli peace activist Miko Peled whose father was once the Israeli general in charge of Gaza.

Protest for an end to the ongoing siege and genocide in Gaza. We refuse to allow our money to fund the deaths of Palestinians!
People of all religions and backgrounds are encouraged to come out.
This 4-Week seminar led by Richard Wolff, will begin with an introduction and brief history of world socialism from its 18th-century beginnings to today. We will examine the different kinds of socialism (Soviet, social democracy, democratic socialism, Cuban socialism, socialism with Chinese characteristics, and worker-coop socialism) and likewise examine the differences among socialism, communism, anarchism, and so on. Finally, we will examine critiques of socialism. Throughout, we will be sensitive to different interpretations of socialism and distinguish between socialism as a critical movement within capitalism (how it began) and socialism as an alternative system (how it evolved).
The dates for each of the four sessions are on Mondays: Oct 9th, 16th, 23rd & 30th. Online Zoom information will be sent through email upon registration.

The much-anticipated Venom 3, officially titled Venom: The Last Dance, is just around the corner, and fans of the symbiote are eagerly awaiting its release. This third installment sees Tom Hardy reprising his role as Eddie Brock and Venom, who find themselves hunted by forces from both of their worlds. With the fearsome villain Knull thrown into the mix, the stakes have never been higher.
Watch Now: Venom 3: The Last Dance Online
Venom: The Last Dance finally marks the end of Eddie Brock’s (Tom Hardy) love-hate relationship with his parasitic symbiote Venom. For the past six years, Marvel’s own twist on Jekyll and Hyde has stunned audiences with its anti-hero tendencies, whipping up more mayhem than the actual good they intended. They are no longer strangers like they once were in the original Venom, and with their bond even stronger since Venom: Let There Be Carnage, it seems like the two are finally used to each other.
However, The Last Dance is the ultimate test of their powers. With the third installment digging more into Venom’s past, and his home planet of Klyntar, Eddie must brace himself for the self-proclaimed “God of the Symbiotes”. Also starring Juno Temple, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rhys Ifans, and Stephen Graham, the final movie promises to go all out with a band. Without further ado, here’s where you can catch Venom: The Last Dance in theaters.
Venom The Last Dance: Release Date
The theatrical release for Venom: The Last Dance is set for October 25, 2024. This release date falls in line with the Halloween season, perfectly complementing the movie’s darker, more gothic tone. Fans will recall that the first Venom film hit theaters on October 5, 2018, and its sequel, Venom: Let There Be Carnage, followed on October 1, 2021. The trilogy’s final chapter arriving in late October will undoubtedly be a spooky, action-packed treat for Marvel fans.
Venom 3: Cast and Characters
While the full cast for Venom 3 hasn’t been fully revealed, several key actors have been confirmed. Notably, the casting for the villain Knull remains a mystery, adding to the intrigue. Here’s the list of actors we know so far:
Tom Hardy – Eddie Brock/Venom
Chiwetel Ejiofor – TBC
Juno Temple – TBC
Rhys Ifans – Martin
Stephen Graham – Patrick Mulligan
Peggy Lu – Mrs. Chen
Alanna Ubach – TBC
Clark Backo – TBC
Cristo Fernández – Bartender
Is ‘Venom: The Last Dance’ Streaming?
Right now, there’s no official word on when Venom: The Last Dance will be hitting streaming, but here’s what audiences can expect. Typically, movies hit streaming platforms about 30 to 45 days after their theatrical run, which means the earliest fans can catch Venom from the comfort of their homes is sometime in early 2025.
Watch Now: Venom 3: The Last Dance Online
And since Venom: The Last Dance is a Sony Pictures creation, it’ll most likely arrive on Netflix, thanks to their ongoing deal. Netflix gets first dibs on Sony’s new releases, along with access to older titles from their library. Recent Sony hits like Madame Web, Bad Boys: Ride or Die, and The Garfield Movie have already made their streaming debuts, so it’s just a matter of time before Venom joins the lineup.
With Venom 3 releasing in theaters on October 25, 2024, we can estimate that it will be available on Netflix around January 2025. Following Netflix’s exclusive streaming window, the film will likely make its way to Disney+. This timeline aligns with Sony’s standard practice, ensuring fans won’t have to wait too long to stream the movie after its theatrical release.
Is ‘Venom: The Last Dance’ in Theaters?
Venom: The Last Dance officially premieres in U.S. theaters on October 25. Better get comfy – the third and final installment is slated for a 109-minute runtime, including credits. Like any true Marvel flick, it’s best to stick around to see if there’s a surprise stinger. As a comparison, the first Venom movie ran for a total of 111 minutes, while its sequel, Let There Be Carnage, ran for only 97 minutes.
The Last Dance is one of the final heavy-hitters to close out October’s spooky season lineup. Earlier this month, audiences saw the release of the wildly divisive Joker: Folie à Deux, which stumbled through its opening weekend. Despite all the buzz, the sequel barely scraped together a worldwide haul of $192 million, struggling to even break its hefty $200 million budget. Critics and fans alike have been pointing fingers at the film’s bold, but questionable, creative choices, including its musical numbers and a storyline that isn’t as convincing as the first Joker movie.
How to Watch Venom 3: The Last Dance
If you’re eager to watch Venom: The Last Dance, the most immediate way to catch the film is by heading to theaters. Venom 3 will be released in cinemas worldwide on October 25, 2024. Major theater chains like AMC, Cinemark, Regal, and other local theaters are expected to showcase the movie upon release. As this is the final installment of the trilogy, fans of the franchise are encouraged to experience the explosive action on the big screen.
Advance ticket sales for Venom 3 are likely to begin closer to the release date, so be sure to keep an eye on your local theater’s website or popular ticketing platforms like Fandango. The pre-Halloween release date means the film is perfectly timed for a spooky movie night with friends or family!
Where to Watch Venom 3: The Last Dance
For those unable to catch Venom 3 in theaters, you might be wondering when and where you can stream the movie at home. Sony Pictures has a deal with Netflix, which means all Sony-released films debut on Netflix after their theatrical runs. If you’re familiar with how past Sony Marvel films have been handled, you’ll know that movies like Venom and Venom: Let There Be Carnage hit Netflix a few months after their cinema debut.
With Venom 3 releasing on October 25, 2024, we can estimate that the movie will land on Netflix by January 2025. Typically, Sony films take about three months after their theatrical release to appear on Netflix, so fans can expect to enjoy Venom: The Last Dance on the streaming platform in the early months of 2025.
Which Streaming Platform Will Have Venom 3?
As part of Sony’s agreement with Netflix, Venom 3 will first become available on Netflix for streaming. After a designated period of Netflix exclusivity, the movie is expected to move to Disney+. This follows the trend set by previous Sony Spider-Man Universe films, where they debut on Netflix and later transition to Disney+ for a wider audience.
So, if you’re a Netflix subscriber, mark your calendar for early 2025, when you’ll likely be able to stream Venom: The Last Dance from the comfort of your home. Following its Netflix run, expect the movie to make its way to Disney+, giving you a second streaming option.
When Will ‘Venom: The Last Dance’ Debut On Netflix?
Sony Pictures Entertainment has a deal with Netflix, which gives the streaming service the opportunity to be the first to exhibit Sony’s film on streaming video on demand.
The typical streaming window for Sony’s films from the time they open in theaters to their debut on SVOD is roughly days. Once again using Bad Boys: Ride or Die and The Garfield Movie as examples, both films followed a 90-day theatrical opening to SVOD release pattern on Netflix.
Going by the same 90-day release pattern, viewers can expect Venom: The Last Dance to debut on Netflix sometime around Friday, January 24, 2025, or Tuesday, January 28, 2025, since new film releases typically debut on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Venom: The Last Dance plays in previews Thursday and opens on Friday in theaters nationwide.

Movie Discussion Series: “The Men Who Stare at Goats” —
Like a book club but for movies, presented by the Oakland Greens — “The Men Who Stare at Goats” (2009): Struggling reporter Bob Wilton (Ewan McGregor) gets the scoop of a lifetime when he meets Lyn Cassady (George Clooney), who claims to be from a unit of psychic soldiers who have been reactivated for duty. Intrigued by Cassady’s assertions that they can walk through walls and kill goats by fixed gazes, Wilton follows him on a dangerous, top-secret mission across Iraq to find the brigade’s founder, Bill Django (Jeff Bridges) .
