DESCRIPTION:https://www.facebook.com/events/423104754459669/\n\nOn Sunday, April 6th, 
 coinciding with people across the globe, we are having an assembly to plan 
 direct actions from April 22nd to May 1st to raise awareness about the 
 intersections of labor, immigration, and environmental issues.  You can 
 propose actions or events to fill in the days between may day and earth 
 day. Examples include but are not limited to: film screenings, sit-ins, 
 tree sits, guerrilla gardening, pickets, marches, blockades, strikes, etc. 
 After the proposals are voted on, we will have a discussion about 
 strategies to unite workers and environmentalists against the bosses.  \n\n 
      Start any Earth Day to May Day Assembly in your city!\n\nFollowing 
 this we will will be screening the film "Rocking the Foundations" which is 
 about the Builders Labourers Federation of Australia who fought 
 victoriously for their rights as a union, the rights of indigenous people, 
 and in defense of the environment by performing the first of what are now 
 known as the green bans.   We have seen in the past few years "health and 
 safety" and environmental regulations have been increasingly violated, 
 disregarded, and dismantled by greedy, self serving actors like the Koch 
 Brothers, proponents of the Trans-Pacific "free trade" Pact,  and other 
 corporate and state entities. Indigenous People, workers, immigrants, and 
 environmentalists are rising up across the world to take a stand to defend 
 the Earth and their human rights.  \n\nFrom Earth Day to May Day we are 
 going to step up our game in the Bay.  Here we have a long history of 
 taking effective direct actions to achieve our demands and now we are at 
 the point where we must stand together and fight for Environmental Justice 
 in our communities.  With climate change upon us we can't wait for an 
 eco-revolution.  We have to make it. \n\nTo email event/action proposals or
