DESCRIPTION:Join us on October 1st for the kick-off rally for a statewide campaign 
 demanding the total abolition of the University of California Police 
 Department (UCPD). This is a coordinated day of action which will occur on 
 all ten UC campuses.\n\nTens of thousands of UC students and staff come 
 from Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Muslim, immigrant communities that are 
 constantly overpoliced through harassment and baseless arrest. The removal 
 of UCPD and ICE from campus is not the endpoint, but the condition of 
 possibility for imagining safety over security. Nearly all full-time UCPD 
 employees make more than $100,000 per year—in the midst of public 
 austerity measures, we demand the $24 million UCPD budget be transferred to 
 the wellness programs and equity initiatives we desperately require. 
 \n\nThe Cops Off Campus coalition has emerged amidst a global pandemic, 
 relentless state and vigilante violence and national calls for the 
 abolition of police, prisons, and the carceral state. The movement to 
 abolish UCPD by Fall 2021 is led by BIPOC community members, 
 undergraduates, graduates and other workers across UC and CSU campuses. Our 
 goal is an end to all policing, beginning with questioning the University 
 of California's role in the militarized surveillance of higher education 
 and beyond.\n\nCommunity Guidelines—\nDo not speak to UCPD, City of 
 Berkeley police, or university administrators.\nFollow all COVID-19 safety 
 protocols: masks on, socially distance outside of your social bubble, stay 
 home if you’ve had any flu-like symptoms in the last 14 days.\nBring 
 pots, pans, noisemakers.\nBay Area National Lawyers Guild #: 415 285
