Hi everyone, we will be meeting up this coming monday the 5th from noon-4pm to help two garden friends with their plot on the corner of 37th and West, Oakland. We are linking up with community gardens and they are excited to receive support from us. We will mainly be filling in the planter beds with starts, basic upkeep, elaborating on the edges near the fence line, possibly planning a green house and bee hive for the space, enjoying company, and snacking. bring food or drinks if you’d like. We are hoping to get some bricks together to use as retainer walls. so if you have that resource shoot us a line before monday. see you then, with love

Meeting for all who wants to join the team. We are non-hierarchical, consensus-based, autonomous group. We have a wide range of experience, but we come together as volunteer lay health workers to provide first aid, to street medic for actions, and to support the wellness of Occupy Oakland.
On Tuesday, December 6th ACCE, Occupy Oakland, Labor, Community Groups and families facing foreclosure are coming together once again to continue our call for stopping Foreclosures and Making Banks Pay! Please join us in this National Day of Action called by Occupy Wall St.
Here’s a partial list of the “Occupy Our Homes” events happening next Tuesday:
9:30am: ACCE & The Home Defender’s will be meeting @ Snow Park (20th & Harrison by the Lake) for a “Speak out on Foreclosures” to stop the sale of homes prior to the Holiday Season!
2pm: Causa Justa::Just Cause and Occupy the Hood will be rallying and marching from West Oakland BART to demand the Banks work with an Oakland Family to put them back in their home.
4pm: Occupy Oakland, ACCE and allies will be meeting @ Defremery Park on 16th & Adeline St. in West Oakland to support families who plan to Reclaim their Homes and fight back against the attack on working families across the country!
The national Occupy Our Homes campaign challenges a deliberate Wall Street strategy that has made billions for those at the top while devastating the 99%:
Banks created a housing bubble, deliberately designing predatory loans with balloon payments, variable rates, and other features that would yield short-term profits while preying on families least able to pay.
They knew that many of these loans could not be repaid, but they didn’t care because they planned to package and re-sell the mortgages to investors who then were left holding the bag.
The economy crashed as a result of this bank-created house of cards, putting tens of millions of Americans out of work. Unemployment is overwhelmingly the primary cause of foreclosures, not over-extended consumers.
If you have ANY questions, please feel free to email us or hadasalterman@gmail.com from the Occupy Oakland Housing Network.
Join us for the Anti Repression Committee’s weekly meeting
we will be discussing things like legal updates, bail needs and strategies to support those that have been arrested or brutalized at Occupy Oakland.
Events Committee is responsible for the actions, workshops, shows, teach-ins, etc. Meetings on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1:00 pm at Brown Couch Cafe at 14th above Webster.
Y.O.G.A. = You Occupy, Get Access!
“Record Occupy Oakland” will encourage all comers to write their personal experience and their personal observations. We’ll read and review essays, poems, stories, memoirs, plays, speeches, and help make them vivid and powerful. And we will be a connecting house to places where a record can be published. We can also entertain the idea of building a SLAM team. Bring paper and pens that work, or laptops, to the workshop.
