This coming Friday, November 7th, the California State Lands Commission will take historic action to fully decommission offshore oil and gas infrastructure before the end of its productive life!
This sets a bold and exciting example of how to effectively respond to the climate crisis and hold oil corporations responsible for paying to clean up their mess.
Before the State Lands hearing, all are invited to attend a “retirement party” for oil platform Esther. After over 60 years of oil spill risks, this decrepit and dangerous platform off Seal Beach in Orange County will finally be brought down. This leaves just two remaining offshore platforms. Let’s celebrate a new chapter! We’ll have cupcakes, karaoke, a “well wishes” guest book to share your message for Esther, and more!
RSVP HERE.
WHERE: We’ll be set up to the left of the main entrance near Mishka Dog Boutique (in the Ferry Building).
WHEN: Friday, November 7th
- 9am: Retirement party
- 10am: Hearing begins, stick around for testimony if you’d like!
WHAT TO BRING: Any marine-life themed materials, stop offshore drilling signs.
Hosted by the Center for Biological Diversity, Oil & Gas Action Network, 350 Bay Area, and Sunflower Alliance.
There will also be an informal evening celebration at 5pm at 7th West in Oakland. Let’s celebrate the great election results and some other big wins in our battle against Big Oil, including:
the cities of Richmond and Oakland passing resolutions supporting the Make Polluters Pay Climate Superfund,
Santa Barbara county voting to phase out oil drilling, and denying the transfer of a pipeline permit from Exxon to Sable, which would restart 3 offshore rigs and a pipeline that have sat idle for ten years since the disastrous oil spill,
renewable energy outpacing fossil fuel development globally, and at lower cost,
and more!
Feel free to invite friends!
“Come join us for a medicinal day at Clinton park (655 International Blvd) in Oakland November 9th 9-5pm. Free ancestral medicine offerings from cafe collective students. No sign-up required. Options for masked providers, outdoor treatments, and masks provided. Vietnamese interpretation available.”

Our guest, Pierre Labossiere, will provide an update on the current situation in Haiti. He will explain who the players are and debunk media narratives about the nature of so-called “gangs” in Haiti that have been covertly supported by imperialist and outside forces tied to the “Core Group” and their Haitian collaborators. The self-appointed “Core Group,” with representatives from the US, France, Canada, Brazil, Germany, Spain, EU and OAS, is de facto governing Haiti at present.
Pierre Labossiere is Co-Founder of the Haiti Action Committee (HAC) and the Haiti Emergency Relief Fund (HERF) established in the Bay Area in 1991 and 2004 respectively. Working with Haiti’s grassroots movement that is engaged in the struggle for justice and democracy, HAC and HERF provide information regarding conditions on the ground, assist refugees and support community-based initiatives and institutions working for the liberation and the rebuilding of Haiti.
Marilyn Langlois is a long time Haiti solidarity activist who has been with the Haiti Action Committee for over 20 years and has traveled to Haiti 4 times. She is also on the Board of the Haiti Emergency Relief Fund, and brings the voice of Haiti to the Board of Taskforce on the Americas.
