Sunday, September 7
1. Sunday, 1:00pm – 3:00pm, Boycott Chevron Picket
Chevron Corporate Station
5500 Telegraph Ave (Telegraph @ 55th)
Oakland
FIRST SUNDAY OF THE MONTH, 1-3 PM (RAIN CANCELS)
Signs and chants will be provided. Bring your energy and tambourines!
Israel’s genocide machine couldn’t run without power from Chevron. Israel’s war on Gaza and Occupation of Palestine contributes to the climate catastrophe. Chevron supplies light and energy via its operation and co-ownership of two major Israeli-claimed fossil gas fields in the Mediterranean.
Chevron’s extraction activities are funneling millions of dollars in tax revenues to Israeli government coffers, directly fueling Israel’s system of settler colonialism and violence against all Palestinians. In 2022, those revenues amounted to over $462 million.
BDS is a global nonviolent Palestinian led movement, and we demand that Chevron immediately cut its contracts with genocidal Israel, and end its role in climate devastation globally.
Following in the tradition of the anti-apartheid gas station boycotts of the 60s & 70s, Palestinians and allies are building a global movement to hold Chevron accountable for its crimes through a coordinated boycott of Chevron gas stations and products around the world.

5. Tuesday, 12:00Noon – 1:00pm, Canadians Are Not The Enemy! STOP The Trade War NOW! No Tariffs & Trade War With Canada
Middle Harbor Shoreline Park
Port Of Oakland
2777 Middle Harbor Road
Oakland
Rally & Speak Out
The growing trade war between the US and Canada and the rest of the world is leading to more attacks on working people here and around the world.
Canadians are not the enemy. It is the billionaires who run the US and the world who want to pit workers here against workers in Canada and around the world.
This trade war will hurt airline workers, hotel and tourist workers and workers both union and non-union who are connected to international trade. It is an attack on workers on border states and in California and the West Coast who will pay the costs of this anti-working class trade war with more inflation and union busting.
At the same time Trump, who is a racist and fascist is demanding that Canada no longer use French as one of their national languages. This fascist who is using ICE gestapo agents against Black and Brown immigrants is demanding that Canada start attacking their own people to get a trade deal. This use of trade war to create national divisions is part of the game book of fascists and Nazis.
ILWU port workers on the West Coast, Teamsters in the airlines and tourist workers are already facing the brunt of trade war along with increasing costs and inflation making it difficult to live and pay the bills.
The major decline of US capitalism is a direct result of the same billionaires outsourcing our industrial base to China to make more profits.

6. Tuesday, 3:00pm – 10:00pm, Annual 9/11 Truth Film Festival
Grand Lake Theatre
3200 Grand Avenue
Oakland, California 94610
Honoring those seeking peace, justice, liberty, and the truth of the events of September 11, 2001 for the past 25 years. Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance invites you to their 22nd Annual 9/11 Truth Film Festival with films and speakers.
Seeking to cast light on the truth and to deconstruct the lies that lead to wars, loss of civil liberties, the surveillance state, as well as the deaths, displacement, injuries and impoverishment of multitudes and ecological disasters. Showing how truth change this trajectory…
Featured Films Include:
A sneak preview of the new documentary-
The Responders: Breaking the Silence,
The untold story of September 11th, 2001, both from the uncensored experience of the first responders who risked their lives that day and from those who have since responded to the call to speak the truth, whatever the cost…
Four Died Trying [Prologue]
The unflinching examination of the four earthshaking political murders of the 1960s that radically curtailed human progress around the world. The murders of President John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Robert Kennedy accelerated the United States government’s slide into becoming an imperial power untethered from its founding ideals.
The Demolition of Truth: Psychologists Examine 9/11
Respected social scientists examine America’s cognitive dissonance – its inability to reconcile the observable facts and science of 9/11 with our government’s official story that doesn’t add up.
Speakers Include:
Bruce de Torres, author of “God, School, 9/11 and JFK: The Lies That Are Killing Us and the Truth that Sets Us Free”
Carol Brouillet Co-Founder of the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance
