Additionally, the proprietor of Manny\u2019s, Emmanuel Yekutiel, has unequivocally espoused racist, Zionist, pro-Israel ideals that we will not tolerate or accept in our community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further, \u201cManny\u2019s:&nbsp;<br><br>\u00b7 Claims to be a \u201ccommunity\u201d space, yet no one in the Mission, long a poor and working-class, Latinx and black community, asked him to open this gentrifier wine bar. In fact, Emmanuel Yekutiel previously attempted to open Manny\u2019s in the Bayview and the Tenderloin but was told to leave by community members and organizations.&nbsp;<br><br>\u00b7 Even with no community support and no connection to the Mission, Manny\u2019s was given a \u201creduced rate rent\u201d by Sam Moss, executive director of Mission Housing, the landlord of the space.&nbsp;<br><br>\u00b7 Claims to be a &#8220;cultural space&#8221; specifically for the local community of San Francisco and the Mission District. However, so far, the space has almost exclusively hosted Washington DC politicos TED-talks catering to the ruling-class Tech-elite. As longstanding Mission District cultural spaces like Galer\u00eda de la Raza are forced out of their spaces due to the eviction crisis, the owner of Manny&#8217;s, a well-connected, Washington DC corporate and political consultant for companies like Facebook and the Hilary Clinton campaign are helping turn the Mission into a rich-only zone fueled by tech-gentrification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will not tolerate gentrifiers and Zionists attempts at invading and destroying our community through \u201cwoke-washing\u201d!!

Friday, 10:00am \u2013 12Noon, Solidarity Action w Brazil and the Amazon against Destruction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brazilian Consulate<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>300 Montgomery St.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SF<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indigenous people and allies across the Americas are strongly opposing Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro movements to eliminate the rights of indigenous people and commit genocide, while opening up the Amazon to corporate interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1- Bolsonaro has plans to close the Environment Ministry, which is mandated to protect the environment, and instead fold it into the Agriculture Ministry, which tends to favor the interests of those who would convert forests into farmland. Converting forests into farmland (deforestation) raises multiple issues 1. It&#8217;s cutting down precious trees in the Amazon. 2. This territory is more often than not indigenous territory. 3. Cutting down trees emits a LOT of carbon. At the rate that Brazil already emits carbon as the 6th largest country of carbon emissions, it will be impossible for the world to stay in the limits of the Paris Agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Within hours of swearing in Bolsonaro broke up FUNAI. FUNAI was designated for overseeing initiatives for indigenous people. Eliminating protections to indigenous people, including uncontacted tribes, is genocide. This means over 900,000 people, over 274 individual languages, and over 305 tribes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3- Bolsonaro has stated plans to identify rights activists as terrorists. This includes allies as well as indigenous peoples standing up for their sovereign rights in territory that has been theirs for as long as the Amazon has had guardians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4- Bolsonaro is openly racist against black people, and indigenous people. Saying both &#8216;&#8221;It&#8217;s a shame that the Brazilian cavalry wasn&#8217;t as efficient as the Americans, who exterminated their Indians&#8221; and that &#8220;They don&#8217;t do anything. I don&#8217;t think they&#8217;re even good for procreation any more&#8221; referring to the descendants of the African slaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5- Bolsonaro supports militarizing the government towards a fascist dictatorship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/354812221969033\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/354812221969033\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>17. &nbsp;Friday, 12Noon \u2013 2:00pm, Mothers on the March Against Police Murders \u2013 Week 119<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hall of Injustice<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>850 Bryant St.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SF<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All are invited to join us&nbsp; to demand that District Attorney George Gascon charge police officers with murder.

The state would have us believe he was a passive figure. The truth is he was a radical leader, unshakable in his demands for rational change: an end to capitalism, to war, to empire, to poverty, and to white supremacy. We take this opportunity every year to celebrate the true spirit of this revolutionary<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Jan. 21, we march for justice for all victims of police terror and their families. We march for housing as a human right. We march for a just economy that meets everyone\u2019s human needs. We march for real community safety, which means defunding the police to invest in our communities. We march for quality education for all our kids. We march for real sanctuary in the Bay. We march for a sustainable climate and healthy environment for all families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Demands:<br>&#8211; Justice for ALL victims of police terror and their families<br>&#8211; Housing as a human right: truly affordable housing for all in need, immediate shelter for our unhoused neighbors, and public land for public good.<br>&#8211; A just economy that works for everyone, puts people over profits, provides living wage jobs with dignity for all, requires corporations to pay their fair share to do business in our cities, and ensures that any development benefits the community.<br>&#8211; Community-based public safety: Invest in prevention, not criminalization; make all police use of force transparent and accountable.<br>&#8211; Quality education for all: Fair pay for teachers. No cuts, no closures, no more charters.<br>&#8211; Real sanctuary for all: Abolish ICE, end criminalization of our most marginalized, and guarantee the safety of all queer, Black, Brown and Indigenous communities.<br>&#8211; Environmental justice: clean, air, water, and safe food supplies for all.<br>Indigenous sovereignty and respect for sacred sites.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sponsor: APTP<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/306880009918687\/?active_tab=discussion\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/306880009918687\/?active_tab=discussion<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>29. &nbsp;Monday, 5:00pm \u2013 6:00pm, Stand with Refugio and Elvira Nieto \u2013 Monthly gathering at Alex Nieto\u2019s altar<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bernal Hill<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SF<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Public transportation # 67 MUNI.
