DESCRIPTION:MARCH & RALLY: #TheGreenNewCity Housing, Climate Justice and 
 Animals\n\nWHEN: Saturday, February 29, 2020 @ 1:00 PM – 4:00 
 PM\n\nWHERE: Southwest of Golden Gate Fields, West of Gilman houseless 
 encampment\n(Golden Gate Fields horse track, 1100 Eastshore Hwy, Berkeley, 
 CA 94710)\n\nHousing, climate justice, and animal rights activists are 
 wearing GREEN and marching from the houseless encampment at Golden Gate 
 Fields to Berkeley City Hall to demand #TheGreenNewCity.\n\nJoin this 
 plant-based food serve and trash pick-up, then march with us to City Hall 
 as we rally to demand housing, climate justice, and animal rights. \n\nThe 
 city’s houseless population has increased by 42% to 1000+ people, and 
 wildfires driven by climate change threaten thousands more. Meanwhile, the 
 ultra rich use huge swaths of land for cruel purposes such as horse-racing, 
 even as ordinary people live in squalor right across the street. \n\nWe are 
 in a moment of crisis, and our community needs the government to take 
 urgent action — NOT to cater to business interests or allow bureaucracy 
 to bury solutions. We need, in short, to make Berkeley #TheGreenNewCity — 
 one where we bravely confront the climate crisis, enshrine housing as a 
 human right, and live with respect towards our planet and all its 
 inhabitants. \n\nThe residents of the Gilman encampment have asked for our 
 help, but remember that this is THEIR home. Please be respectful of their 
 needs and instruction. \n\nWHERE: Meet at Golden Gate Fields, West of 
 Gilman encampment\n\nWHEN: \n1:00pm - Food serve and trash pickup\n2:00pm - 
 Rally and march begins\n4:00pm - Expected end time\n\nWEAR: Please wear a 
 green hoodie/t-shirt\n\nACCESSIBILITY: This event will include a 3 mile 
 walk which will be done at a moderate pace. We have an accessibility car 
 for anyone who may need it.  If you have questions or need support to 
 attend this event, email sfbay-protest@directactioneverywhere.com. 
 \n\nABOUT: Direct Action Everywhere\n\nDirect Action Everywhere (DxE) is a 
 grassroots network of animal rights activists. Through open rescue, 
 demonstration, and disruption, we are creating a world where every animal 
 is safe, happy and free.\n
