DESCRIPTION:Take action against racism and Islamophobia! \n\nThe San Francisco Board 
 Unified School District (SFUSD) has once again turned their back on Arab 
 and Muslim families, caving to racist lawfare and backlash. Despite massive 
 outrage, with over 80 prominent organizations across the US, and over 2,200 
 individual emails demanding they follow through on their commitment to 
 implement the Eid holiday, SFUSD  plans on voting tomorrow  to approve a 
 school calendar that does not include Eid. \n\nThis morning, the 
 American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) and AROC informed San 
 Francisco Unified School District that our own litigation will commence if 
 the SFUSD fails to honor the resolution which it passed. \n\nBut the 
 District can still make good on its commitment and amend the school 
 calendar tomorrow to include Eid!\n\nHere's how you can help!\n\n1. Have 
 your organization sign on to our national letter: 
 https://bit.ly/DefendMuslims\n2. Send a one-click email to the Board of 
 Education: https://bit.ly/DefendEid\n3. Send your own organizational or

 Area?\n\nRally & Press Conference Before Board of Education Meeting\nMarch 
 7. 2023 at 5:30pm\n555 Franklin St. San Francisco, CA\n\nHear from outraged 
 SF elected officials, legal experts, interfaith leaders, workers and 
 community organizations demanding SFUSD respect students and families. 
 Following the rally, we will join the meeting itself for public comment and 
 demand they amend the calendar to INCLUDE EID!\n\nLearn more about this
