Golden Gate Liberty r3VOLution - San Francisco

This is a regular weekly happening that's started up, centered around the community of folks who resist the Covid authoritarianism, although everyone's welcome. A message from the organizer...

Hello Sane Franciscans,

Thank you to everyone who came out and made last weekend’s Sunday gathering so special. It was a joy to see so many happy kids running around barefoot on the grass or playing in the nearby kids' playground, friends, families and strangers listening and connecting, people making signs, two (!) masseurs with tables offering massage, and a micro-agorist marketplace with a bunch of us selling or trading our wares on the street and on the green...

Indeed it was so wonderful, we decided to host another joint gathering on Saturday (our regular day) again in collaboration with Luminary Village and SF's Friday Park Friends, and this time we also have Harmony Village & the East Bay/Contra Costa Freedom Cell joining us. Methinks it will be a good break between the two very important rallies happening on Friday and Sunday. (Hope you got that email from my non-Mailchimp account ;)

We recommend bringing blankets to sit on, as well as potluck food and drinks to share.* The weather on Saturday is going to be a very warm 72 degrees), but hey, it’s San Francisco so be sure to bring layers too.

If you have items to sell/trade/give away, and want to join in our weekly sidewalk sale (which happens right on 19th Street, on the other side of the fence to where people will be sitting), you should bring a small table or box to display your wares. You can also sit with your items on the grass and have people walk over to you.

For those of you driving from further afield, it is totally possible to get lucky with parking, but just in case, be prepared to walk a block or two. Also you could consider BARTing it in, as it’s only a 11 minute walk from 16th & Mission BART.

In summary:

Analogue Saturday
August 28th,[masked]pm to 5pm
19th Street at Linda (between Valencia & Guerrero)
Meet on the green by Mission Pool
2:30pm: Live Music with Bossa Tropicale

* There are many corner stores and cafes within minutes of our meeting place too if you want to grab your grub from local vendors. Eg. Java Supreme Cafe serves great coffee, delicious bagels, sandwiches and salads, and definitely deserve our support if you get my drift ;)

Stay Sane,
Neshma
Oh by the way, at 2.30pm, there will be live music: Bossa Tropicale will be playing for us!

How to Request & Use Police Records to Hold California Agencies Accountable

{FYI only} This event is hosted by KQED in collaboration with the First Amendment Coalition

A look into the "On Our Watch" podcast and how journalists, activists and citizens can access public records to uncover misconduct.

When California’s SB 1421 was signed into law, it opened the door to previously hidden police files. KQED went to court with a cadre of lawyers and assembled a coalition of media partners to uncover and expose misconduct, abuse and criminal behavior by agencies and individuals engaged in law enforcement in California.

Through records requests, tough reporting and litigation, the California Reporting Project has brought secrets to light, gained the compliance of unwilling agencies and amplified the stories of victims.

Learn firsthand from the creators of the KQED and NPR podcast On Our Watch how this work led to the show. Get behind the scenes insight on the legal battles from the lawyers who fought them, and learn how to request and use police records to hold California agencies accountable.

This event for journalists, activists and concerned citizens is being presented in collaboration with the First Amendment Coalition.

Featuring
Alex Emslie, Criminal Justice Reporter, KQED
Sukey Lewis, Criminal Justice Reporter, KQED
David Snyder, Executive Director, First Amendment Coalition
Tenaya Rodewald, Special Counsel, Sheppard Mullin
