The Main Stream Media (MSM) is so full of lies, it’s got the masses confused!!
There are 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. USA is one of the largest TERRORIST countries in history,
killing, wounding, and forcing emigration on millions of folks (did you know there
are 65 million migrants?) all over the world!!

Saving Chelsea and Julian is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!! To the
Working class and it’s Allies.They told us the truth about the wars! And all the
NEW McArthyism (phony Russia Gate conspiracy led by the New York Times) is
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 the RULING CLASS
imprisoned them and want’s them DEAD.

March For Housing Now – Our City, not Scarcity! @ Mosswood Park
Nov 23 @ 12:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Who deserves to have a home in Oakland, Berkeley, or Richmond? Who makes these decisions?

In the midst of the housing crisis, speculators are buying up houses, apartments and PUBLIC LAND. In Oakland, there are 4 VACANT units for every, individual unhoused person, 25% of whom are children.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

We cannot settle for ‘trickle-down’ solutions that overproduce “luxury” market-rate housing and structurally build in vacancies and homelessness. We must not stand by while corporate landlords and greedy developers buy up our cities and force black and brown families out in droves. We must work together to make “Housing is a Human Right” more than a slogan and ensure safe, humane housing for all.

JOIN US TO:

MOVE THOUSANDS OFF THE STREETS and vehicles into safe, healthy homes by filling vacant units

PROHIBIT THE HARASSMENT OF RESPONSIBLE TENANTS
by bad landlords trying to push them out for a quick dollar

STOP WALL STREET INVESTORS
from tearing down homes that are affordable to build housing for the wealthy

DEMAND THAT PUBLIC LAND BE USED FOR PUBLIC GOOD
through passing and enforcing strong, local public land use policies

EXPAND RENT CONTROL PROTECTIONS
by repealing Costa Hawkins

Winter is coming — will you do your part to ensure our unsheltered and housing insecure families have homes?

Extinction Rebellion: Reject Fast Fashion @ Westfield Mall
Nov 29 @ 11:00 am – 12:30 pm

Join XR Youth SF Bay for a fast fashion protest. On Black Friday, we must remember that 12.8 million tons of clothing are sent to landfills in the US every year. The fashion industry’s CO2 emissions are projected to increase by more than 60% to nearly 2.8 billion tons per year by 2030.

We’ll sit-in outside the mall before slowly processing inside to hold a die-in.
Who: You! Us! Anyone who is concerned about the environment and their carbon footprint.

What to bring: protest signs (if you don’t have them, we have some extra), comfortable clothing. Another option is to wear an outlandish outfit to make fun of fast fashion!

Bay Area Women in Black March and Vigil @ Powell St. BART
Nov 29 @ 11:45 am – 1:00 pm

Bay Area Women in Black’s annual Black Friday March and Vigil calls for a boycott of products whose sale supports the cruel and illegal occupation of Palestine. Fliers and signs offer the rationale for the boycott and urge the end of U.S. military aid to the State of Israel. This is a non-violent event.

On the biggest shopping day of the year in the U.S., Bay Area Women in Black will once again show how profits from the sale of certain items and participation by businesses and cultural groups in events sponsored by the State of Israel are used to impose illegal and cruel occupation and colonialism on the people of Palestine.

Please join our non-violent march and vigil from the Powell Street BART Station to Union Square. Fliers and signs will show how specific businesses promote illegal occupation and daily living conditions called “worse than apartheid” by Bishop Desmond Tutu, conditions supported by U.S. tax dollars. Prepare to participate in the singing of BDS-themed “anti-carols”. Drums and banners welcome.

Please dress in black and gather on Friday, Nov. 29, at the Powell Street BART station at 11:45 for a 12:00 PM march to Union Square, returning to BART by 1 PM. The San Francisco Police Department will escort us.

National Climate Strike in Oakland @ Oscar Grant Plaza
Dec 6 @ 10:00 am – 12:30 pm
Join Oakland youth for a community Resilient Village to raise awareness on climate resilience and our upcoming climate chaos with hands-on workshops on herbal making, civic engagement, art, water catchment, and more. We will also provide tools for youth and allies to learn about divestment from fossil fuels and investment in the Green New Deal and provide ways to get involved.

This action is youth led and co-hosted by YVA, Mycelium Youth Network, Planting Justice and others.

We hope this will lead into a city wide disaster resilience planning meeting with city officials on Saturday 12/7.

Part of the National Climate Strikes on December 6th:

The September 20th Climate Strike was the largest day of action for climate justice ever. On December 6th, as world leaders gather at the UN’s annual climate conference, young people across America will join a national #ClimateStrike to take the momentum from September to our elected officials’ doorsteps.

In September, many politicians shared nice words of encouragement. But, we didn’t walk out of school and work to earn their praise. We joined the #ClimateStrike because our lives depend on elected leaders treating this crisis like the emergency it is.

On December 6th, we’ll show up at the offices of our political leaders and ask them, are you ready to stand with our generation and fight for a Green New Deal?

Crimethinc Tour in Oakland: Benefit for Oakland IWOC @ Omni Commons
Dec 6 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm
crimethinc.jpg Come out to hear from one of the longest running anarchist media collectives in existence.

The event will benefit the Oakland chapter of the Incarcerated Workers Organizing Committee (IWOC), who will be serving dinner at 6 PM – a delicious fusion of Puerto Rican and Filipino food.

Currently, CrimethInc. agents are traversing the West Coast of the US, distributing anarchist literature at three book fairs and offering three different presentations in at least ten different cities. This is a crucial moment, with clashes intensifying in various parts of the world; it’s a good time to strengthen our connections, sharpen our analyses, and strategize together for the next round. We’ll be revisiting our book about the last cycle of struggles, From Democracy to Freedom, as it relates to the questions confronting social movements today, and drawing on dialogue with participants in the movements unfolding right now. Come join us!

Trump/Pence Out Now!
Dec 14 @ 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm

“There is no Santa Claus, and he will not remove Trump and Pence. It’s on us. Trump/Pence #OUTNOW!”

This is a month of flash protests, banner drops, rapidly responding to sharp political events, and other actions, including “moving protests” – on public transit or by car caravan – to disturb the air and get the word out on a massive scale.

The centerpiece of the month will be mass protests on December 14, injecting the demand “Trump/Pence #OUTNOW!” into the holidays to shake off the numbing mass-consumerism daze.

If we truly want to bring joy to children everywhere in this season, we must put an end to the regime that locks them in cages and imperils their future.

PG&E: We Need Power to Live! @ PG&E HQ
Dec 16 @ 12:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Join Diablo Rising Tide and many allies at PG&E corporate headquarters to #ReclaimOurPower and start a wave of action that continues through the winter. There will be speakers, programming, and more! Accessible and kid-friendly.

The action will demand that PG&E:

1. GIVE BACK ALL SHAREHOLDER PROFITS UNTIL PG&E CAN SAFELY PROVIDE POWER. STOP PROFITING OFF PEOPLE’S LIVES.

PG&E has paid out billions in shareholder dividends to predatory investors, while people are dying due to PG&E’s negligence. PG&E has failed to upgrade infrastructure for the stresses we face amidst climate change. Their equipment failures start fires that burn down cities, displace whole communities, and poison the air we breathe across entire regions. PG&E dodges accountability by continuing to seek executive bonuses amidst bankruptcy, shutting down power instead of repairing their equipment, and spending thousands on an exclusive retreat the day before the largest shutoffs.

2. INVEST IN VULNERABLE PEOPLE’S BASIC POWER NEEDS. STOP PUTTING PEOPLE AT RISK.

Disabled people have died in the shut offs — even one loss is too many. Ten more years of blackouts are unacceptable because blackouts kill disabled people and harm Black and Brown, working class and poor communities. #NoBodyIsDisposable! PG&E must invest in: solar-powered batteries to power the equipment of every medical baseline customer during power outages; HEPA air filters for chronically ill people, elders, and children in areas impacted by fire smoke; groceries for people who live paycheck to paycheck; alternative lodging for people whose homes depend on power to survive; compensation for small businesses who experienced losses during the shutoffs; and payouts to victims of PG&E-caused fires.

3. TURN PG&E OVER TO THE PEOPLE.

PG&E has a well documented history of criminal negligence of its infrastructure, which has caused fires, death, and destruction. Now, PG&E has claimed that it will take ten years to fix California’s grid — that means 10 more years of rolling black outs with the public footing the bill. This is unacceptable and will consistently put so many lives at risk. We won’t let PG&E continue with their negligence. A public takeover of the grid will allow for the needs of the public, rather than shareholders, to be the priority. By switching to a publicly owned grid, California can create a more democratized, decentralized, and sustainable power grid for all. #CleanPowerToThePeople
