The Occupy Los Angeles General Strike Preparation Committee is having a critical meeting Tuesday, March 6 at 7:30 PM at Corazon del Pueblo, 2003 E. First Street in Boyle Heights (corner Cummings, just east of the I-5 Freeway) -- a few blocks east of the Plaza Mariachi station on the Metro Gold Line. This is a really important meeting to decide on the Occupy action and messaging on May 1st and how to coordinate with other labor and immigrants' actions taking place on that day. We need to come up with a clear plan of organizing and implementing our efforts to build a community base and nurture alliances so that the May 1 General Strike can have the paradigm-shifting impact of the original Occupations, and put us in a stronger position organizationally and politically to move forward beyond May 1.
The points of unity of the May 1 General Strike call from Occupy LA are: No work - no school - no commerce - all out in the streets; For Immigrants' Rights For Economic, Social and Environmental Justice and Labor Rights For Peace with Justice For Civil Liberties - End the Police State For Housing, Education and Health Care as Human Rights For Women's Rights, LGBTQ (gay) Rights and Gender Equity A day without the 99% ... A Day for the 99% For more information, check www.occupymay1st.org ------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAAMN: Los Angeles Alternative Media Network --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: <mailto:laamn-unsubscr...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe: <mailto:laamn-subscr...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digest: <mailto:laamn-dig...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Help: <mailto:laamn-ow...@egroups.com?subject=laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post: <mailto:la...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive1: <http://www.egroups.com/messages/laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive2: <http://www.mail-archive.com/laamn@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yahoo!
