Tuesday, 3:30pm, Speak in Support of Oakland Divest<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Oakland City Hall Currently, the meeting starts at 3:30pm and Open Forum (where you can make a public comment on any issue not on the agenda) will be at the end of the meeting. We have been told the meeting will definitely be at least 3 hours, so Open Forum is expected to be 6pm+. If arriving after 5pm+, someone onsite will need to get your speaker card for you (they only give them out the first 90 minutes of the meeting) or you can email the City Clerk by Sunday night to request one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As we continue to witness the violence of the Zionist occupation and the spectacle of the election, we must remember the impact of our collective efforts. Divestment is one important way to take action.

Thursday, 4:00pm (PT); 7:00pm (ET), Building a People\u2019s Arms Embargo: How to divest from weapons companies profiting from the Gaza genocide<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Registration via Zoom: Webinar Registration – Zoom<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s our role to stop the weapons: we know that *70%* of Israel\u2019s genocide has been paid for by U.S. tax dollars, and both the policymakers *and* the profiteers of genocide live & work here in the United States. When the masses of people coalesce around strategic campaigns against mega-corporations, we transform the economic outlook of apartheid Israel, pressuring the powerful to cut ties with genocide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Join us to learn about a series of strategic BDS campaigns for companies, institutions, and governments to cut ties with genocide, called the People\u2019s Arms Embargo. We can win, like the movement for divestment from South African apartheid before us, but first we need to win campaigns that politically and economically isolate corporations that send weapons to Israel. We\u2019ll share new resources and lessons on this expanding are of BDS work. Then, we\u2019ll hear from a former and a current USCPR fellows and other local campaign organizers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n –Hear from Aisha with Palestinian Youth Movement\u2019s Mask Off Maersk campaign and Honor the Earth about taking on the underbelly of imperialism: the logistics company Maersk that is responsible for shipping weapons and military goods to the Israeli Ministry of Defense<\/p>\n\n\n\n –Learn from Adan from New Orleans Stop Helping Israel\u2019s Ports (NOSHIP) about how to get started with identifying local Maersk sites and demanding the company cut ties with genocide<\/p>\n\n\n\n –Get inspired by and plug into the Chevron: Stop Fueling Genocide campaign to use boycott and divestment to pressure Chevron to divest from extracting fuel for Israel from fields off the coast of Palestine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Host: US Campaign For Palestinian Rights<\/p>\n\n\n\n Friday, November 15<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 8. Friday, 8:00am \u2013 GG26 Trial<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hall of Justice Check Instagram gg25solidarity for updates<\/p>\n\n\n\n After 4 days of hearings in October, the first stretch of preliminary hearings on the felony conspiracy charges have concluded. They will resume on November 15th, and a judgment is expected by late November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The GG26 legal defense team has stat4ed since day one that this is clearly a politically motivated prosecution without merit or substance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During the hearings the DA failed to present evidence on 10 individuals who claimed they were impacted by the protest. These alleged victims only complained after the SF Chronicle publicized a tip line to the cops in a breach of journalistic ethics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It was also revealed that one complaining witness on the bridge was in fact not blocked by protesters but by the police who sealed off all northbound lanes that day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In continuing to pursue these trumped up charges such as felony conspiracy or 988 counts of false imprisonment, DA Jenkins continues to expose herself as a right-wing opportunist that marches in lockstep with the nations most dangerous fanatical proponents of political repression. This year we have seen MAGA republicans introduce a spate of anti-protest bills all over the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n DA Jenkins dogged pursuit of trumped up criminal charges against these protesters is a chilling and Trump-like maneuver to distract from and silence the real issue at hand: the genocide of Palestinians<\/p>\n\n\n\n Info: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DBwYJX7y52c\/?img_index=1<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n 9. Friday, 8:00am, Stop Offshore Drilling In California – Coastal Commission meeting in San Francisco <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hyatt Regency San Francisco, 5 Embarcadero Center Sign up here<\/strong><\/a> for rally \/ press conferece etc<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Texas oil company Sable Offshore Corp, is charging ahead with dangerous plans to restart a corroded, old oil pipeline that ruptured off the Santa Barbars coast in 2018. Restarting the pipeline would bring three offshore oil pipelines back online that have been shuttered for nearly 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Coastal Commission has stepped in to protect our coast. At their meeting they will be discussin Sable\u2019s violations and unpermitted work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rally & public comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From Oil Gas Action Network <\/p>\n\n\n\n SAFE THE DATE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Friday, November 20<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Friday, 9:00am (PT); 12Noon (ET), A Year of Lost Childhood in Gaza<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n RSVP: A Year of Lost Childhood in Gaza<\/a> (via ZOOM)<\/p>\n\n\n\n On World Children\u2019s Day<\/strong>, join Defense for Children International – Palestine for “A Year of Lost Childhood,” an urgent event amplifying the voices of Palestinian children in Gaza who face a daily struggle for survival. As Israel\u2019s genocidal campaign against Palestinian children continues to deny them the basic rights to life, education, health, and safety, these young witnesses will share their realities\u2014grieving the loss of loved ones, navigating the trauma of violence, and enduring the deprivation of critical resources. This event sheds light on the brutal impacts of Israel’s policies and the relentless violations that strip children of their most fundamental rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This event is a call to global action. DCIP will outline ways to mobilize against the genocide facing Palestinian children, urging attendees to advocate for an arms embargo, demand accountability for perpetrators, and challenge the systemic abuses that perpetuate these crimes. Join us in standing with Palestinian children and taking concrete steps to end these injustices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Host: Defense of Children International<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Adrienne Fong Not posting on a regular basis.
