DESCRIPTION:DEFEND AUNTI FRANCES! Emergency Eviction Defense Rally. THIS SUNDAY @ 11am. 
 \n\nYou can't evict community power! Stop the eviction, close the 
 loopholes. #DefendAuntiFrances #ClosetheLoopholes 
 #BlackHomesMatter\n\nPlease come for an emergency eviction defense rally 
 for beloved Oakland community member Aunti Frances Moore. It is crucial we 
 get as many people as possible to show up and prove to Aunti Frances' 
 landlords that her community will support her no matter what. This is the 
 official launch of our eviction defense campaign, so share this event as 
 widely as you can! There is also info below on how to support this cause if 
 you can't attend the event this Sunday, so read on!\n\nWe will celebrate 
 with food, music, and people power. Bring your kids, friends, and 
 neighbors! There will be performers, speakers, and a public reading of the 
 community support letter to Aunti Frances' landlords (with more 50+ 
 community organizations signed on).\n\nHOW YOU CAN HELP IF YOU CAN'T 
 ATTEND\nThere are many ways to support Aunti Frances right now even if you 
 can't come on Sunday. We value and appreciate every kind of support that is 
 possible for you.\n\n1. Repost Auntie's story far and wide! Share this

 INFO\nRally will take place in Driver's Plaza, which is wheelchair 
 accessible, and around the neighborhood in the street and on the sidewalk. 
 This is an outdoor event and there is no bathroom access. Due to the 
 emergency nature of this event, it is likely we will be unable to provide 
 ASL interpretation. (Please post in this event or contact us at 
 info@defendauntifrances.org if you can help with this effort!) There are 
 benches for folks to sit in the Plaza, and we will print some collapsable 
 chairs for people to sit in. More access info 
 forthcoming.\n\nBACKGROUND\nAunti Frances is a beloved Black disabled 
 activist, elder, Black Panther and community leader who has lived in North 
 Oakland/South Berkeley her entire life. She now faces a no-fault eviction 
 by a notorious loophole in Oakland renter protections.\n\nOur mission is to 
 convince Aunti Frances' landlords, Natalia Morphy and Morphy’s parents, 
 to end the eviction proceedings and instead support Aunti Frances in 
 staying in her community. We need as much community support as possible to 
 insist that the Morphys drop this eviction. We aren't going anywhere, 
 because you can't evict community 
 power!\n\n\n\n---------------------------------------------------------\nCONTACT
