Oakland
CA
People’s Strike Bay Area will caravan from downtown Oakland to Frutivale to the Coliseum on Monday, June 1st, from 12pm to 3pm. Because “normal” was not. The current situation is untenable. And the future is only an opportunity if we seize it. We stand with others around the country and around the world on the first of every month to build toward community control of everything.
1) 12PM-12:45PM: Rally @ State Building
if OSHA can’t protect workers, we don’t need it. No Safety, No Work. No work, No Rent. No Safeguards, No School.
2) 1:15PM-2PM: Speakout @ Oscar Grant Station/Fruitvale Plaza
In memory of Oscar Grant, Richard “Pedie” Perez, Steven Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and George Floyd, we stand together to clarify: America’s “enough is enough” moment ended about 500 years ago.
3) 2:30PM-3PM: Rally @ Oracle Arena/Oakland Coliseum
We need investment in communities, neighborhoods and future generations, not yuppie playgrounds and tourist attractions. Another Oakland, another California, another world, is possible.
As Arundhati Roy says, the pandemic is a portal.
Volunteer opportunities abound.
