The most marginalized people within the 99% are fed up and we are calling for an occupation of Well’s Fargo Detention Center in Downtown Oakland just a few yards away from the Occupy Oakland Camp.
Well’s Fargo Detention Center (AKA Bank) has been making Billions of dollars investing in Immigrant Detention Centers (AKA Concentration Camps) and at the same time they invest aggressively in anti-immigrant lobbying to pass laws like Arizona’s SB 1070 which fill those camps with undocumented profit.
67 Sueños is a collective of undocumented youth and allies that refused to be passive about the violence done to our community.
We call on the 99% to stand with your most marginalized brothers, sisters and gender neutrals.
We call on the Bay Area immigrants rights movement to support our efforts to target the main profiteers of our people’s pain.
We call on Occupy Oakland to make this big bank a stones throw away one of your key targets in solidarity with our struggle.
Planning Meeting this Saturday, E-mail 67suenos@gmail for info and to be involved.

Nosotros los mas marginados en este pais hacemos un llamado al 99% de la gente que no son ricos y no ganan cuando Wells Fargo gana, a marchar con nosotros en solidaridad y “Occupar” a Wells Fargo.
El Banco de Well’s Fargo esta contando con cientos de millones de dolares en ganancias gracias al dolor de nuestra comunidad. Resulta Que Wells Fargo invierte mucho dinero en los centros de detension donde aguantan a nuestra gente sin derechos antes de su deportacion. Tambien Invierten su dinero en esfuerzos para crear y aprovar leyes anti-inmigrante como la ley SB 1070 en Arizona. De esta manera ellos aseguran las ganancias de sus inversiones en los centros de detencion. Nosotros Sufrimos por el profito de ellos.
Nuestro grupo, 67 Sueños, es uncollectivo de jovenes indocumentados y nuestros aliados.
Hacemos un llamado al movimiento pro-derechos del migrante a que nos ayuden a luchar contra el egoismo y racismo de este banco.
Hacemos un llamado a nuestros compas en el movimiento que esta “Occupando a Oakland” a que se unan a esta demonstracion en solidaridad.
Para participar en la organizacion de esta accion escribanos un correo electronico a 67suenos@gmail.com

Specific meeting for all camped at Oscar Grant Plaza. Meetings everyday at 12pm.

We are a group of theatre activists and drama therapists comitted to racial justice. We use Theatre of the Oppressed, Playback Theatre, and many drama therapy methods. We are offering a weekly interactive theatre workshop for community members who would like to partake in a space for anti-racist community building, working through dynamics with “isms” within the movement, letting off steam, and practicing embodying our racial justice ideals together.We encourage community members who do or who would like to embody anti-racist/ racial justice oriented ideals. We acknowledge that for white activists, this means practicing having the humility and compassion to continually challenge our assumptions, and distortions, and listen deeply to people of color. This space is for people of color and white people and acknowledges that we live in a world that is racially oppressive. For People of Color, this space can be a place to acknowledge the oppressive systems we are impacted by and how those systems manifest in our interactions with our communities, families, partnerships, and ourselves in the narratives and interactions we have about ourselves, our partners, families, friends, and community.The movement, at its best, can be about embodying racial justice ideals in order to make the change we need. We are inspired by histories of resistance to racial injustice and honor these legacies. Interactive theatre, like drama therapy, Theatre of the Oppressed, and Playback Theatre, are powerful tools to help with this process.
