5. Saturday, 12Noon, People Over Billionaires – Day of Action

Alta Plaza Park (Pacific Heights)
Corner of Jackson & Scott Sts.
SF

Rally & March

Info & Registration: https://www.mobilize.us/millionvotersproject/event/867817/

On Saturday, November 15th we will gather for a peaceful rally and march in the neighborhoods where some of our country’s wealthiest corporate billionaires live. They try to insulate themselves from realities on the ground and the real life pain and suffering they are causing while they enrich themselves. They need to hear from us. These events are also happening in San Diego, Los Angeles and Silicon Valley on the same day.

We need to let them know that if the country keeps moving in the oppressive direction it is going, they will not be able to count on the consumer participation and financial assurance they depend on. Companies like Tesla and Target have begun to learn this.

Our families and communities are under attack, with the federal government grabbing people off the streets without due process and cutting vital services such as food assistance and healthcare. We face all this, while a small group of very powerful and wealthy corporate billionaires get even richer.

We will not be focusing on any particular homes, but instead march peacefully in the community in the spirit of unity and love, not division and hate.

November 15th is not a one-off action but the beginning of sustained campaigning to help the corporate billionaires open their eyes to the harm they are fueling.

Join a forum on the ICE raids, militarization of our cities, the government shutdown and the calls for a general strike by Brandon Johnson, the Mayor of Chicago and Sara Nelson, President of AFA-CWA.

Working people are under assault from the fascist immigration raids to the attacks on public education, public services, healthcare and the government shutdown to the US support for Israeli genocide and the Trump’s war on Venezuela and Colombia.

The danger of martial law and the use of the National Guard, ICE and US troops to institute a fascist take-over is growing and it is funded with $170 billion from Trump’s budget earlier this year.
This panel will also look at how working people are being affected and why some unions are taking action including UAW NOLSW-LAE which had a one-day work action with a picket of the ICE office in San Francisco.

The call by Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson and AFA-CWA president Sara Nelson on No King’s Day for a national general strike will be discussed and how working people and unions can build support for such action to stop the war on working people, unions, the poor and immigrants.

10, Tuesday, 4:00pm – 5:00pm (PT); 7:00pm – 8:00pm (ET), Webinar: Media Bias and the Gaza Genocide

Online
https://masspeace.us/media-bias-gaza

Since October 2023, historian Assal Rad and journalist Sana Saeed have closely tracked media coverage of the genocide in Gaza, highlighting how much of it aligns with the Israeli narrative and distorts key facts — contributing to widespread misinformation and disinformation.

Our speakers will present examples of headlines that obscure the facts, and we will have some time to practice our media literacy skills!

Dr. Assal Rad is a historian of the modern Middle East. She works on research and writing related to U.S. foreign policy issues, the Middle East, contemporary Iran, and Israel/Palestine. Her writing can be seen in Newsweek, The National Interest, The Independent, Foreign Policy and more, and she has appeared as a commentator on BBC World, Al Jazeera, CNN, and NPR. Assal completed a PhD in History from the University of California, Irvine in 2018 and is the author of The State of Resistance: Politics, Culture, and Identity in Modern Iran (Cambridge University Press, 2022).

Sana Saeed is an award-winning journalist and media critic known for her sharp analysis of how media shapes public perception. She previously hosted the shows Backspace and The Occupation Style Guide at AJ+ that illuminated the ways mainstream news frames narratives around war, colonialism, and resistance. Since October 2023, she has been at the forefront of critically exposing how U.S. media propaganda is used to justify war crimes and shape public discourse around the genocide in Gaza.
