DESCRIPTION:BOYCOTT MANNY’S \n\nSTOP THE WOKE-WASHING OF THE MISSION \n\nWe are a 
 group of black and brown folks, Jews, Mission Housing tenants, trans and 
 queer people, and many others, who are committed to collective liberation. 
 We are \ncalling for a community boycott of Manny’s (3092 16th at 
 Valencia, SF) because this new upscale wine bar is yet another gentrifying 
 attack on our community. While Manny’s bills itself as a “community 
 space”, it’s marketed toward white ruling class techies, and its 
 programming often features right-wing politicians who are supported by the 
 luxury condo industry. While Manny’s is on the ground floor of a 
 low-income building run by Mission Housing, its residents had no say in its 
 placement. While countless Latinx cultural spaces are evicted from the 
 Mission, Sam Moss who runs Mission Housing, gave Manny’s a reduced rent.  
 \n\nThe owner of Manny’s has worked with Bay Area Zionist organizations. 
 Zionism is a racist ideology that believes Palestinian people have no claim 
 to their land. Zionists, through the state of Israel, enforce this ideology 
 by murdering, arresting, torturing, and displacing generations of 
 Palestinian people. We stand against Zionism, gentrification, 
 anti-Semitism, and all other forms of oppression. \n\nManny’s is part of 
 a systematic attempt to make gentrification and racism seem “cool” 
 through woke-washing. Woke-washing is the strategy of putting a “social 
 justice” façade on oppressive politics. \n \nJOIN US EVERY WEDNESDAY
