We are&nbsp;<br>calling for a community boycott of Manny\u2019s (3092 16th at Valencia, SF) because this new upscale wine bar is yet another gentrifying attack on our community. While Manny\u2019s bills itself as a \u201ccommunity space\u201d, it\u2019s marketed toward white ruling class techies, and its programming often features right-wing politicians who are supported by the luxury condo industry. While Manny\u2019s is on the ground floor of a low-income building run by Mission Housing, its residents had no say in its placement. While countless Latinx cultural spaces are evicted from the Mission, Sam Moss who runs Mission Housing, gave Manny\u2019s a reduced rent.&nbsp;<br><br>The owner of Manny\u2019s has worked with Bay Area Zionist organizations. Zionism is a racist ideology that believes Palestinian people have no claim to their land. Zionists, through the state of Israel, enforce this ideology by murdering, arresting, torturing, and displacing generations of Palestinian people. We stand against Zionism, gentrification, anti-Semitism, and all other forms of oppression.&nbsp;<br><br>Manny\u2019s is part of a systematic attempt to make gentrification and racism seem \u201ccool\u201d through woke-washing. Woke-washing is the strategy of putting a \u201csocial justice\u201d fa\u00e7ade on oppressive politics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>JOIN US EVERY WEDNESDAY 7:00PM\u00a0<br><br>Endorsed by\u00a0<br>Black and Brown for Peace Justice and Equality;\u00a0<br>The Lucy Parsons Project;\u00a0<br>Palestinian Youth Movement &#8211; Bay Area;\u00a0<br>Brown Beret National Organization;\u00a0<br>National Brown Berets;\u00a0<br>International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network;\u00a0<br>Queers Undermining Israeli Terrorism;\u00a0<br>Jews Against Zionism;\u00a0<br>GAY SHAME: A Virus in the System<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6.
