The Formerly Incarcerated People’s Performance Project (FIPPP) is back on stage for our Fall Festival at PianoFight Oakland on October 15 and 16 and October 22 and 23. Our Fall Festival features solo performances by Tony Cyprien, Freddy Lee Johnson, Pamela Ann Keane, Pearl Louise, Pastor Ronnie Muniz, and Al Sasser. Directed and produced by Mark Kenward, with co-direction by Rebecca Fisher and Wayne Harris, each performance was crafted using improvisation and storytelling techniques and each performer brings their own unique experience of circumstance, heartache, learning, and redemption to the stage in their own voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the pressing issues of mass incarceration, solitary confinement, reentry, and justice reform on both the local and national agendas, these stories of incarceration and reinvention give an invaluable insight into the conditions in prison, the post-prison experience, and life behind bars for the people who serve time and their families that serve along with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RSVP for updates<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Register: Get the Zuck Out! Let\u2019s tell Mark Zuckerberg it\u2019s time for him to go. Tickets, Sun, Oct 17, 2021 at 12:00 PM | Eventbrite<\/a><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Edgewood Dr.
Palo Alto
<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

It’s been hearing after hearing, whistleblower after whistleblower, and DC hearing after DC hearing: all saying the same thing. We’ve created a monster and now it is eating us alive: our privacy, our personal connections, our public health and what remains of our democratic institutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Facebook Users Union was founded to leverage the power of us, the Facebook users who create the content and provide the eyeballs and clicks. The purpose of a union is to build collective power. We reject the idea that the only power we have as a Facebook user is to accept the unacceptable or to delete Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demands have been made; by Facebook’s employees and whistleblowers, by their advertisers in a lengthy boycott, and by their users. And <\/strong>Mark Zuckerberg has always, without fail, put the company’s profits first, despite having all the money anyone could ever need. <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

join us on Sunday for a loud, colorful, peaceful protest outside Zuck’s house in Palo Alto. <\/strong>We will park our cars outside of his house, honk our horns, and display signs that tell Mark to get the Zuck out! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We need you to RSVP so we can coordinate the COVID-safe caravan, send you the pre-caravan meeting place and send you graphics to decorate your car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

250 19th<\/sup>\u00a0Street
Oakland
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Masks\/social distancing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us on Sunday 10\/17 at Snow Park to learn about what needs to be done and how YOU can get involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our society has the resources to end the housing crisis overnight. There are four times as many vacant homes in the Bay Area as there are homeless people. The state could simply issue a blanket ban on evictions. The bailouts the banks and corporations have been paid during the course of the pandemic would easily cover the total cost of cancelling all rents and mortgages. But none of these measures would be profitable for the banks, the billionaires, and the corporate landlords. Only the mass movement of the people in streets can win housing for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Across the Bay Area (and around the country!), tenants are getting organized to fight back against the looming eviction crisis – from car caravan protests to rapid-response eviction defense networks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
