DESCRIPTION:DxE is working on a campaign to get the city of Berkeley to transition to a 
 safer and more sustainable food system by using city funds to purchase 
 plant-based foods instead of animal products. After months of emailing, 
 calling, and protesting in support of this ask, the Mayor of Berkeley met 
 with activists twice. He said he would work with us at that time, but since 
 then he has not fulfilled his commitment.\nAt a recent City Council 
 meeting, the Mayor told lies about the protest and lockdown at Golden Gate 
 Fields and about the commitments he made in his meetings with us. He even 
 said DxE activists posed as vaccine clinic volunteers in order to gain 
 access to Golden Gate Fields during the protest, which is false. We will 
 attend the upcoming City Council meeting to hold him accountable, share the 
 truth, and demand Berkeley divests from animal products.\n---\nWHEN:
