Mar 22 @ 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm

NOTE: During the Plague Year of 2020 GA will be held every week or two on Zoom. To find out the exact time a date get on the Occupy Oakland email list my sending an email to:

occupyoakland-subscribe@lists.riseup.net

 

The Occupy Oakland General Assembly meets every Sunday at 4 PM at Oscar Grant Plaza amphitheater at 14th Street & Broadway near the steps of City Hall. If for some reason the amphitheater is being used otherwise and/or OGP itself is inaccessible, we will meet at Kaiser Park, right next to the statues, on 19th St. between San Pablo and Telegraph. If it is raining (as in RAINING, not just misting) at 4:00 PM we meet in the basement of the Omni Collective, 4799 Shattuck Ave., Oakland. (Note: we tend to meet at 3:00 PM during the cooler months from November to early March after Daylights Savings Time.)

On every ‘last Sunday’ we meet a little earlier at 3 PM to have a community potluck to which all are welcome.

OO General Assembly has met on a continuous basis for over six years, since October 2011! Our General Assembly is a participatory gathering of Oakland community members and beyond, where everyone who shows up is treated equally. Our Assembly and the process we have collectively cultivated strives to reach agreement while building community.

At the GA committees, caucuses, and loosely associated groups whose representatives come voluntarily report on past and future actions, with discussion. We encourage everyone participating in the Occupy Oakland GA to be part of at least one associated group, but it is by no means a requirement. If you like, just come and hear all the organizing being done! Occupy Oakland encourages political activity that is decentralized and welcomes diverse voices and actions into the movement.

Oakland Privacy: Fighting Against the Surveillance State @ ONLINE, VIA 'ZOOM' - SEE BELOW
Mar 25 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm

Email contact@oaklandprivacy.org a few days before the meeting to obtain Zoom meeting access info.

Join Oakland Privacy to organize against the surveillance state, police militarization and ICE, and to advocate for surveillance regulation around the Bay and nationwide.

op-logo.2.1We fight against spy drones, facial recognition, police body camera secrecy, anti-transparency laws and requirements for “backdoors” to cellphones; we oppose “pre-crime” and “thought-crime,” —  to list just a few invasions of our privacy by all levels of Government, and attempts to hide what government officials, employees and agencies are doing.

We draft and push for privacy legislation for City Councils, at the County level, and in Sacramento. We advocate in op-eds and in the streets. We stand in solidarity with Black Lives Matter and believe no one is illegal.

Check out some of what we worked on in 2020 and 2019.

Oakland Privacy originally came together in 2013 to fight against the Domain Awareness Center, Oakland’s citywide networked mass surveillance hub. OP was instrumental in stopping the DAC from becoming a city-wide spying network.  We helped fight and helped win the fight against Urban Shield.

Our major projects currently include local legislation to regulate state surveillance (we got the strongest surveillance regulation ordinance in the country passed in Oakland!), supporting and opposing state legislation as appropriate, battling mass surveillance in the form of facial recognition, mass aerial surveillance, and other analytics, and pushing back against ICE.

On September 12th, 2019 we were presented with a Barlow Award by the Electronic Frontier Foundation for our work, and on March 16th, 2021 s James Madison Freedom of Information Award by the Northern California Society of Professional Journalists.

“WATCHING YOU WATCHING US”

Oakland Privacy works regionally to defend the right to privacy and enhance public transparency and oversight regarding the use of surveillance techniques and equipment.  Oakland Privacy drove the passage of surveillance regulation and transparency ordinances in Oakland and Berkeley and is kicking off new processes in various municipalities around the Bay.  To help slow down the encroaching police and surveillance state all over the Bay Area, join us at the Omni.

ON DIVERSITY: The Eclipse of the Individual in a Global Era 

With Steve Wasserman

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

“Russell Jacoby is one of the most prescient and important writers in the United States. His prose is as lucid and penetrating as his intellect. His moral compass makes his observations prophetic.” — Chris Hedges

Diversity is a word much repeated in the news, in universities, in casual conversations, even at television awards’ shows. But what does the word actually mean? How do we square our seeming love of the word with the fact that our world is actually becoming increasingly less diverse and more homogenous all the time? That conformity in virtually every way is in fact rapidly accelerating? That we are all too often marching to the same potentially fatal drumbeat?

At last, one of America’s greatest intellectual gadflies directly takes on this question with straightforward prose . On Diversity: The Eclipse of the Individual in a Global Era delves into language, fashion, politics and even childhood experience to present a surprising, often

penetrating analysis of our cultural moment. When so many of our public thinkers appear to be tangling with one another in order to be credited with the latest proper opinion, Russell Jacoby offers a fresh, dangerous, liberating injunction: just stop and think.

The author bracingly affirms the importance of the individual distinction that our classic thinkers identified as the ultimate aspiration for an age of increasing conformity in how we raise our children, what we wear, how we talk, even how we hobble our own brains.

On Diversity is first-rate intellectual history and penetrating cultural criticism.”

— George Scialabba, author of What Are Intellectuals Good For?

Steve Wasserman, Publisher & Executive Director of Heyday Books, is former Editor of the Los 

Angeles Times Book Review and was Deputy Editor of the Los Angeles Times‘s Sunday Opinion

Section and Op-Ed Page, after which he became editor-in-chief of New Republic Books.

He also served as Editorial Director of Times Books/Random House and Publisher of Hill &

Wang and The Noonday Press, both divisions of Farrar, Straus & Giroux.

Stop the (Chase) Money Pipeline @ Chase Bank
Mar 27 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm

 

Join a national day of action to demand that JP Morgan Chase Bank — the biggest funder of the fossil fuel industry — stop the money pipeline! The last Friday in March is the next in a series of “Stop the Money Pipeline events organized by a growing coalition of climate groups demanding that JP Morgan Chase immediately divest from fossil fuels.

JPMorgan Chase is by far the biggest funder of the fossil fuel industry worldwide, and the only U.S. funder of the Jordan Cove Pipeline.  In the three years since the Paris Agreement, JPMorgan Chase has provided the fossil fuel industry with $196 billion in financing.  Chase is the #1 banker of arctic oil and gas drilling, the #1 banker of ultra-deepwater oil and gas drilling, the #1 banker of LNG, the #1 U.S. banker of coal mining, and the #2 banker of fracking (right behind Wells Fargo).

To compound the pain, in 2008 JPMorgan Chase received one of the largest bailouts ($25 Billion) from the U.S. government, using that money—taxpayers’ money!—to fund fossil fuel development that could have gone instead to renewable energy.

It’s time to say enough.  Over the last few years, there have been many protests at Chase banks all over the U.S., including more than a few here in the Bay Area.  But now that campaign is getting turbo-charged with the launch of  Stop the Money Pipeline.  Stay tuned for a major national mobilization on Chase scheduled for April 23, the “Finance Day” protest during 2020 Earth Week actions!  The goal is to disrupt business at 1,000 Chase branches all across the country.

When we look at those pictures from Australia, yes, we see the absolute horror of people whose lives are turned upside down and animals that are killed and ecosystems that are wiped out, but we also see, fully visible in those flames, the dollar signs that led to that conflagration. That’s what is at the bottom of the crisis that we face.” —Bill McKibben, before his arrest at a Washington, D.C branch of Chase Bank on January 13, 2020 (quoted by Democracy Now)

 

Sign up for details on future actions here

And:

  • Cut up your Chase credit card—#CutTheChaseChallenge. 
  • Drown Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan Chase CEO, in letters.  See an attached letter template at the bottom of the post, or write your own letter and sent it to:   Jamie Dimon 1185 Park Ave New York, NY, 10128  or 144 Sarles Street Mt Kisco, NY, 10549.
  • Call Chase every month and tell them to stop giving loans to the fossil fuel industry.  Here is a convenient call page.
  •  Plug into “Finance Day” protest on April 24th during Earth Week.
  •  Sign up for alerts from stopthemoneypipeline.com .
