#reposted • @bayarea4palestine 🚨RALLY TOMORROW 1/17🚨

In solidarity with the #BayBridge78: tell DA Jenkins to #DropTheCharges against all protestors!

This Wednesday (tomorrow!) show up for a rally at District Attorney Jenkins' office to show that San Francisco will not simply stand by while civil disobedience against genocide is being criminalized. As we fight for a Free Palestine, we will also continue to fight all efforts to silence the call for justice!

📣 TOMORROW (1/16): Rally at the DA's office, 1/17 @ 10 am, 350 Rhode Island St, SF

✍️ Organizations: Sign on to show your support today. bit.ly/bb78endorse

📢 Keep the pressure up: your calls and emails matter! bit.ly/BayBridge78

#repost • @aroc_bayarea ALL OUT FOR GAZA - SATURDAY MORNING & AFTERNOON
SHUTDOWN THE PORT OF OAKLAND

We will shutdown the port ALL DAY!
Our first shift will hit the port at 5AM! We need to start the day off STRONG in order to shut down Port business early and maximize our impact. NO business as usual when Palestinians are facing genocide backed and funded by the US government.

The Bay Area will continue to shut the port down throughout the day. A second shift for the afternoon will be announced when there are more details available. We anticipate the afternoon shift to be more easily accessible for families. The action will be wheelchair accessible.

#repost • @antipoliceterrorproject The state would have us forget who MLK truly was. They do the same for the Panthers, Malcolm X, and all the revolutionary freedom fighters on whose shoulders we stand.

The state is doing the same with Palestine now. Trying to gaslight us into not believing what we are bearing witness to in real time: genocide and apartheid.

This upcoming King Day it’s more important than ever that we recommit to remembering and reclaiming our history of resistance and fighting for liberation.

We are honored to be joined by an exciting roster of speakers including Linda Sarsour of @mpowerchange , Oakland Poet Laureate Ayodele Nzinga, Malkia Devich-Cyril of @mediajustice , Nicole Lee of @urbanpeace510, and more.
