DESCRIPTION:----------------------------------------------------------- \nSOCIAL STRIKE

 socio-political demands such as a living wage, clean water, or a city-wide

 \nFLYING PICKET \nfly·ing pick·et [flahy-ing pik-it] \nnoun \nA picket 
 traveling from place to place to support local pickets, where needed, 
 during any strike; the purpose is to combat all forms of class betrayal or 
 collaboration by preventing scabs from crossing picket 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 out!
