Bay Area Rally Against Hate
Aug 27 @ 10:30 am – 12:30 pm
We’re residents of the Bay Area — people of color, working class people, immigrants, queer, gay, bi, and trans people, liberals, leftists, and others. We think it’s time to get together, to celebrate our differences in solidarity, and peacefully speak out against the hateful currents in American society. Fascists and white supremacists are meeting in Berkeley to try to intimidate us and incite violence. We’re meeting near UC Berkeley campus, blocks away and on the other side of the downtown, for a non-violent rally to speak to each other about … Continued

We Refuse to Accept a Fascist America!  @ Downtown Berkeley BART
Aug 27 @ 11:00 am – 5:00 pm
  Meet 11AM at Shattuck and Allston Way, and then march to Martin Luther King Park, MLK and Center St., Berkeley  Stand up to the “No to Marxism in America” rally in Berkeley! Once again the fascists are targeting Berkeley, this time claiming, “Berkeley is a ground zero for the Marxist Movement.” By going after Marxism, they are taking a line right out of Hitler’s playbook — conflating anyone progressive with communists while viciously going after communists themselves, aiming to shut down any exploration of radical solutions to this system. … Continued
12:00 pm Protest the White Supremacist Rally: Communities Against Racism & Fascism @ Civic Center Park
Protest the White Supremacist Rally: Communities Against Racism & Fascism @ Civic Center Park
Aug 27 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
The bigotry, racism and violence that far-right organizers are bringing to Berkeley on August 27th cannot be allowed to go unanswered. Their event will be a magnet for white supremacists, Nazi enthusiasts, anti-Muslims and anti-Semites, feminist bashers, home/trasphobes, anti-communists and immigrant haters, all gathered under the theme “No Marxism in America.” We want to build on Charlottseville, VA where 6,000 brave protesters shut down the neo-Nazi rally. Let’s stand shoulder to shoulder with those targeted by bogotry in a unified, orderly, and strong counter-demo. History has shown that by taking … Continued

The Occupy Oakland General Assembly meets every Sunday at 3 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 3:00 PM we meet in the basement of the Omni Collective, 4799 Shattuck Ave., Oakland.  (Note: we meet at 3:00 PM … Continued

Indivisible Berkeley General Assembly @ First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley - Westiminster Hall
Aug 27 @ 4:30 pm – 9:30 pm
Please note that the time and location are different from our regular General Assembly. Monday marks the 54th anniversary of the historic March on Washington (August 28, 1963) that signaled a turning point in the Civil Rights movement. Our country is now at another inflection point in the fight for equality and civil rights. Following the election of Donald Trump, hate groups and domestic terrorists have been emboldened to appear publicly and spew their dangerous messages of white supremacy, fascism, anti-Semitism, and bigotry. But​ ​we​ ​are​ ​stronger.​ ​We​ ​are​ ​Indivisible. … Continued

Community Democracy Project @ Omni Commons - Disco Room
Aug 27 @ 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm
The Community Democracy Project is your connection to direct democracy in Oakland! Convened out of Occupy Oakland in Fall 2011, we’re gathering steam on a campaign to bring the people back in touch with the city’s resources through participatory budgeting. Picture this: Across Oakland, Neighborhood Assemblies are regularly held in every community. People come together to tackle the important issues of their neighborhoods and of the city. At these assemblies, people don’t just have discussions–they learn from one another, from city staff, and they make fundamental decisions about how the … Continued
