Representatives from People’s Park, Defend Oxford Tract, and the Gill Tract Community Farm are coming together to discuss the threat of displacement by the University of California and gentrification in the Bay Area.

We will discuss solidarity between the struggle to protect the commons in these three land struggles, and our connection to land-based movements across the world. This will include updates from Fiend of the MST on the Landless Workers Movement (MST) in Brazil, and highlight the need for international solidarity with fights over food sovereignty, land, and housing.

6:00 — Mistica and land acknowledgment
6:15 — Updates from People’s Park/OT/GT/MST
6:45 — Impact of privatization on land / greenspace in the Bay Area
7:10 — Land struggles of working people internationally (MST)
7:30 — Updates from Friends of the MST and building international solidarity
7:45 — Next steps for Gill Tract / Oxford Tract / People’s Park solidarity movement. How do we continue to build knowledge, hope, and action about shared struggle?
