DESCRIPTION:Join the Friendly Fire Collective for an open strategy discussion on 
 organizing against police power in the Bay Area. This event will feature a 
 panel discussion of organizers from police accountability groups around the 
 Bay, including San Francisco, the East Bay, San Jose, Sonoma County, and 
 Watsonville. There will be an open discussion of current campaigns, 
 strategies for fighting police violence and enhancing response capacity, 
 and ultimately building community self-determination.\n\nWhat are the 
 specific issues involving law enforcement that we see affecting our 
 communities? What steps have we taken to address these? What is working and 
 what isn't? After an incident of police violence has occurred, what can we 
 do collectively to respond to this type of assault? How do we take the 
 power away from law enforcement and reconcentrate it in the hands of 
 community members? And how can we look beyond state policing to a new type 
 of community policing based on accountability to ourselves and our peers, 
 not corrupt and draconian laws? It is hoped that from open and honest 
 conversations around these topics networks can be built and effective 
 strategy developed.\n
