This is the moment where all of us should be joining together to move into immediate action to stop the genocide in Gaza. This is an opportunity for us to come together, to find clarity in the midst of uncertainty, and to deepen our shared understanding of the world around us.

In this critical moment, the Arab Resource & Organizing Center (AROC) and its allies, including Bay Resistance, the Center for Political Education, and the Anti Police-Terror Project, are offering this mass meeting space to get clear on messaging and deepen our shared understanding of organizing strategy. There will be space for political education, training on essential organizing skills, action planning, nonviolent direct action trainings and space for the healing power of arts and culture. Childcare and lunch will be provided.

This invitation is extended to everyone looking to plug in, including those who want to learn more about this movement and activists who want to find ways to do more. In acknowledgment of the diverse roles we play in our communities, we have arranged special breakout sessions for families and parents organizing in schools and districts.
