2022 Blake
Berkeley
CA
Gather to discuss ways to support the Where Do We Go? encampment in Berkeley at I-80 & University and thereabouts. It seems like we might be able to offer more material support to the campers and political support for their demands if we coordinate a bit more closely. Just come if you can. Bring folks who you think can help us. This is not really about large, comprehensive political strategy. We are trying to focus in on this particular situation.
Hope to see you there. Bring people who are immediately impacted or who are interested in directly helping this situation.
Some things to consider at this meeting:
* Dealing with sanitation needs of trash and bathrooms etc.
* Help during raids (emergency response network)
* Material support (tents, winter gear)
* Pressing the demands (Art, civil disobediance, legal support, press coverage and messaging)
* Setting up for a longer struggle (sponsorship? GoFundme?)
* Next steps
