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 https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2018/12/21/18819913.php
