Thanks to everyone that joined Circle last night and contributed to the art build for the Friday action ✊🏽

May we continue to turn our grief into action, and feel deeply when it would be easier to go numb 🫶🏽

Please join us in supporting Oakland People’s Arms Embargo this upcoming Friday:

ALL OUT FOR THREE YEARS OF GENOCIDE, SHIPPED BY FEDEX!

🗓️ Friday, October 9
⏰ 10 am
đź“ŤFedEx Shipping Center, Oakland (9190 Edes Ave)

For the last 3 years, Israel has been relentless in its genocide and bombardment of Gaza and increased settler violence and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank. We know that without an arms embargo, the bombs won’t stop. As we’ve seen with Trump’s latest weapons package, the 2,000-lb bombs that have been dropped in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran will only continue—and FedEx is responsible for making this possible.

It is our moral duty to hold corporations like FedEx accountable for their pivotal role in the genocide of Palestinians. FedEx is a key facilitator of the supply chain of death that for Israeli’s fleet of F-35 fighter jets that target people in Palestine, Lebanon, and Iran.

Oakland and the Bay Area stand with Palestine, and we will not allow our revolutionary history to become tainted by complicity in genocide.

We are fed up with FedEx and demand an OAKLAND PEOPLE’S ARMS EMBARGO NOW!

Calling all Oakland and Alameda County small-business owners to a townhall about the proposed $30 minimum wage ballot initiative! RSVP via LINK IN BIO

The ballot measure would raise the minimum wage gradually, based on business size. Large corporations would reach $30 an hour by 2030. Small businesses (25 or fewer employees) would have until 2037.

Hear directly from ballot initiative organizers from the Living Wage for All Coalition, as well as small small-business owners. Together, we’ll make space for honest questions, real conversation, and ideate about how we can build an economy where workers and small businesses can build a united front!

🗳️ Voting in action.

These photos are from last week’s Small Business + Co-op People’s Assembly, where Oakland entrepreneurs, artists, worker-owners, and community members came together to debate ideas, build consensus, and cast their votes on what comes next.

Luckily, we’re in the digital age, so you can still cast yours.

Don’t let someone else decide our priorities. Vote by August 6 and help choose the campaigns we’ll organize around together.

SAVE THE DATE ✨tuesday June 30th ✨ our first Small Business and Co-op People’s Assembly, a space to share your voice and ideas to shape an economy that supports our people, not corporations.

People’s assemblies have long been a way for communities to practice real democracy: making decisions collectively, sharing power, and turning lived experience into action. At a time when small businesses are pushed out and decisions are made without us, this is a chance to step in, and build something different.

Whether you run a shop, are part of a co-op, or care about the future of Oakland’s local economy, your voice belongs here ✊RSVP 🔗 bit.ly/RPOCassembly
