 from place to place to support local pickets, where needed, during any

 lines.\n---------------------------------------------------------\n\nWe 
 call on different social and climate justice movements to shut down 
 oppressive infrastructure by uniting and organizing direct actions and 
 flying pickets on the morning of May Day.\n\nThe idea is that affinity 
 groups will set up pickets and shut-downs at different key infrastructural 
 sites depending on who needs support.\n\nThe site of the 1946 Oakland 
 General Strike. Latham Square, be our central meeting location.\n\nAt the 
 assemblies people will will discuss ideas and break out into committees or 
 affinity groups to organize direct actions or shut-downs in preparation for 
 May 1st.\n\nMay Day #Shutitdown Assembly fliers to print and hand
