Description
Neighborhoods throughout the East Bay are under attack from development, gentrification and repression. At the same time, there are ongoing struggles to keep our neighborhoods whole, and take back land for food and housing. Join a community forum to learn and share what is going on.With panelists including Nyame Selassie of People's Grocery, Melvin Dickson of the Black Panther Party, Mona Trevino of ROOTS, and members of Phat Beets Produce.
Following the panel, the forum will discuss how we can work together to strengthen local struggles for land, food, and power -- at the Gill Tract Farm and beyond.
This event is free to the public.
Dinner (made with pumpkins grown at the Gill Tract) will be served! Occupy the Farm will be distributing winter starts (greens/kale/collards)
FREE!
