With ICE operations underway, increased arrests happening now, and raids reported to start Sunday, rally is being called for TODAY (Thursday).
Trump is threatening our immigrant loved ones and neighbors with mass raids and deportations. We’re standing up against his racist and repressive attacks. Raids tear apart families and cast a shadow on whole communities, making it difficult to go to work, school or live free from fear. Let’s stand together – and respond with power, not panic. Watch this event page and text RESIST to 41411 for updates.
Share your local rapid response hotline number (bit.ly/CAhotlines and below). If you see ICE activity, call the hotline. Make sure reports are verified before you spread rumors or panic.
Notorious local slumlord and Trump supporter Gene Gorelik is rallying support to “save Home Depot” and bully the curbside community at E.8th Street and Alameda Ave. (adjacent to Home Depot Oakland) on Friday, July 12, 8 AM. He has started a gofundme campaign (https://www.gofundme.com/f/operation-save-home-depot), FB event page (https://www.facebook.com/events/2084439161860295/) and is running ads against the curbside community.
We are asking the community to stand together to protect our curbside communities against hate, xenophobia and anti-homeless behavior.
We stand against the new Oakland xenophobia that is against Black & Brown people. We stand against putting a multi-million dollar corporation over the well-being of unhoused Oakland residents. Instead of working to mitigate and improve any issues between Home Depot and the curbside community, Mayor Schaaf, Councilmember Noel Gallo and supporters like Gene Gorelik, want to evict the curbside community with no where to go, providing no adequate housing.
SHOW UP IN SUPPORT, SOLIDARITY, UNITY:
** Show up to rally, chant and counter-protest this Friday, July 12. Show up starting at 7:30-8 AM. Gene’s protest starts at 8 AM.
** Park/meet inside private parking lot on E.8th Street and Alameda Ave (curbside community surrounds the lot). Look for driveway entrance on Alameda Ave. near corner of E.8th St.
>>BRING coffee, tea, water, breakfast items to share with all
>>BRING bullhorns, noise makers, portable speakers with mics
>>BE ready to stand with curbside community residents and support their wishes and needs morning/day of
>>BRING posters using the following slogans:
#DefendtheDisplaced
#CurbsideCommunitiesHaveRightsToo
#HelpUsDontHarmUs
#HousingAndDignityForAll
#UpgradeDontEvict
#SanctuaryCityForAll
WE ARE SEEKING HELP WITH:
>>security
>>cop watch
>>witnesses (document any actions by recording, photography, videography)

Responding to the call for a week of action against ICE from July 8th to 12th, we choose to rally outside their SF office.
WHAT DO WE WANT? The camps closed, the families reunited, and immigrants left alone!
On July 12, activist organizations, migrant rights groups, and community members will mobilize at Palantir’s HQ in Palo Alto at 4:30 PM. Palantir’s contracts w/ ICE make our mass detention of migrants in concentration camps possible. We demand justice NOW! #CloseTheCamps #AbolishICE #LetThemAllIn
Join us to kick off the national day of action to close the migrant and refugee concentration camps in the United States.

Ok, folks, here’s the deal: the Main stream media (MSM) is so full of lies, it’s got the masses confused!! There’s only a few places we can get the truth.
Chelsea and Julian, were two of the most important WHISTLE BLOWERS to tell the truth about USA’s illegal, immoral WARS. That’s why our “US leadership” wants them dead. USA is the largest TERRORIST country in history, killing, wounding, and forcing immigration on millions of folks all over the world!!
To us, saving Chelsea and Julian is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT! They told us the truth about the wars! And all the NEW MACARTHYISM. is due to blaming Julian for being a puppet of Russia. So much of all our issues stem from the honesty of Chelsea and Julian!! That’s why our govt. wants to kill them!
Please join us Fridays at our vigil/demo/music/potluck at MacArthur and Fruitvale, and if you know other organizations around the state and the country, contact them and encourage them to organize to protect Chelsea and Julian as well!! We have some pretty good posters, but also bring your own. Thanks. gg and Orion

What: Climate Justice, Environmental Justice, and Environmentalist day of action during the Month of Momentum.
Why: We are outraged and ashamed about the inhumanity at the border. We want to show up as environmental activists in solidarity with other progressive, issue-focused groups in opposition to the brutally corrosive policies and politics of the current administration.
Many people around the world are fleeing their homes because of war, gang violence, poverty – and increasingly, people are becoming climate refugees, moving because their homes are becoming unlivable due to climate change (sea level rise, desertification, extreme heat, fires, etc.).
Details: Bring a sign or an idea for a sign linking the climate crisis to the immigrant crisis. We will chant, sing, and walk in front of the ICE headquarters during the lunch hour.
This is an opportunity to contribute to strengthening social justice movements across a range of too-often-siloed issues and to contribute to strengthening the broad progressive movement that is necessary to counter rabid nationalism, racism, and greed at the rotten heart of forces aiming to destroy Earth for its current and future inhabitants.

ANNIVERSARIES OF HIROSHIMA & NAGASAKI ATOM BOMB DROPS:
Nuclear Weapons Protest Rally & March at Livermore Labs
Come commemorate the U.S. atomic bombings of Hiroshima (Aug. 6, 1945) and Nagasaki (Aug. 9, 1945) at the place where new nuclear weapons of mass destruction are being created today.
Hear from atom bomb survivor Nobuaki Hanaoka, famed author and whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, and other speakers and musicians.
Following the rally will be a procession to the West Gate where those who choose may risk arrest.
The resurgent risks of nuclear war and unresolved climate danger have caused the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists to keep the Doomsday Clock set at 2-minutes to the apocalyptic midnight hour. This is as close to global Armageddon as the clock has been since it was introduced in 1947.
By gathering on August 6, we will use the visible power of our presence to transform U.S. policy from violence to peace.
PARKING: Free parking is available. There will be van pools to and from the Dublin-Pleasanton BART Station. Call Tri- Valley CARES, 925.443.7148 to reserve your seat -space is limited.
THE LIVERMORE CONVERSION PROJECT NONVIOLENCE GUIDELINES
We agree to abide by the following guidelines in all of the August 6 actions:
–We will be open and respectful to everyone we meet
–We will not use verbal or physical violence
–We will not destroy property
–We will not bring drugs or alcohol except for medicinal purposes
–We will not bring weapons
–We will not run, which can cause panic
–If arrested, we will not resist
–If legal consequences follow our actions, we will treat all those we encounter in the process with openness and respect.
