DESCRIPTION:We call for a community boycott of “Manny’s” at 3092 16th St in the 
 Mission District of San Francisco. “Manny’s” as a gentrifying 
 wine-bar, cafe and fake “social justice” space in the Mission District, 
 will only accelerate the raising of rents and the displacement of Black, 
 Latinx, disabled and trans/queer people in the Mission. Additionally, the 
 proprietor of Manny’s, Emmanuel Yekutiel, has unequivocally espoused 
 racist, Zionist, pro-Israel ideals that we will not tolerate or accept in 
 our community.\n\nFurther, “Manny’s:\n\n ·      Claims to be a 
 “community” space, yet no one in the Mission, long a poor and 
 working-class, Latinx and black community, asked him to open this 
 gentrifier wine bar. In fact, Emmanuel Yekutiel previously attempted to 
 open Manny’s in the Bayview and the Tenderloin but was told to leave by 
 community members and organizations.\n\n·      Even with no community 
 support and no connection to the Mission, Manny’s was given a “reduced 
 rate rent” by Sam Moss, executive director of Mission Housing, the 
 landlord of the space.\n\n·      Claims to be a "cultural space" 
 specifically for the local community of San Francisco and the Mission 
 District. However, so far, the space has almost exclusively hosted 
 Washington DC politicos TED-talks catering to the ruling-class Tech-elite. 
 As longstanding Mission District cultural spaces like Galería de la Raza 
 are forced out of their spaces due to the eviction crisis, the owner of 
 Manny's, a well-connected, Washington DC corporate and political consultant 
 for companies like Facebook and the Hilary Clinton campaign are helping 
 turn the Mission into a rich-only zone fueled by tech-gentrification.\n\nWe 
 will not tolerate gentrifiers and Zionists attempts at invading and 
 destroying our community through “woke-washing”!! The Lucy Parsons 
 Project from this moment forth is calling for a boycott of Manny’s, at 
 3092 16th St., until the space is shut down!!\n\n
