Resistance is Town Bizness! Join us January 15-19, 2024, for the 10th Anniversary of our annual celebration reclaiming MLK’s Radical Legacy with our march and week of action.

For the 10th year in a row, the Anti Police-Terror Project invites you to hit the streets for a mass march on King Day to demand a world free of white supremacy, war, capitalism, and imperialism.

This year, as Israel’s brutal siege and genocide on Gaza continues, we will continue to be in full solidarity with our Palestinian siblings and comrades in their calls for a ceasefire, no more military aid for Israel, and an end to the occupation.

Our march will begin in Oakland on MLK Day, Monday, January 15th at 11am at Oscar Grant Plaza (14th & Broadway). It will be followed by a full week of actions, trainings, teach-ins, film screenings, and healing offerings in King’s honor as we get ready for another year of solidarity, community and liberation. RSVP today to make sure you get updates.

When: January 15-19, 2024
Where: RSVP to get more details!

APTP acknowledges that Black liberation and Palestinian liberation are tied together, and that none of us will be free until all our people are free.

Dr. King’s legacy of radical direct action teaches us that real change comes from the people. For decades Oakland has been at the vanguard in the fight for Black liberation and collective freedom. That’s why � rooted in a tradition of Black revolutionaries standing with otther oppressed and colonized peoples across the globe � our moveement for a world without state violence is in fierce solidarity with the Palestinian freedom struggle. RSVP to let us know you will be with us.

Here’s an opportunity to join climate activists converging on the state legislature to promote bills to tackle the climate crisis.

Following the California Climate Policy Summit March 19, Environment California will lead a day when people can meet directly with legislators and their staff to show them that climate is a top priority for voters in the state and push them to do everything they can to get climate bills passed.

After a brief “Lobbying 101” training, the group will walk from the Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel over to the state capitol to begin meetings with legislators and their staff. Lunch will be provided at noon.

RSVP

THIS FRIDAY – PACK THE COURT! 🖤🔥

Please join us this Friday, March 22 at 2pm to show solidarity in the fight for #Justice4StevenTaylor ! We will be in Department 8, at 1225 Fallon St.
