 large, small and tiny, month after month since MAGA returned to power, with 
 barely a notice from the mainstream media. We have demanded “No Kings” 
 and “No to Fascism” only to see the MAGA march to authoritarianism 
 advance and, indeed, worsen. What can we do now to build on the incredible 
 energy already manifested by our resistance?\n\nThe history of protest 
 movements in this country shows us we have a lot of tools available to us, 
 but what meets this particular moment? Boycotts? Strikes? Tax resistance? A 
 mass march on Washington? Something entirely new and untried? What do you 
 want to see happen, both locally and nationally?\n\nFor this special 
 edition of Other Voices, PPJC’s monthly conversation for activists, 
 we’re going to change things up a bit. After a brief conversation among 
 our facilitators, we’ll open up the lines to hear from you. What are your 
 ideas for creative protest?\n\nSALLY LIEBER has been one of the lead 
 organizers for many of the largest recent protests in our area. As an 
 elected official, Sally has served as a City Councilmember, Mayor, County 
 Commissioner, State Assemblymember, and now is Chair of the State Board of 
 Equalization and serves as a member of the California Franchise Tax Board. 
 A lifelong advocate for people in need, Sally has worked tirelessly serving 
 our communities by working to stop wage theft, empowering undocumented 
 Californians, securing funding and access for teen pregnancy prevention and 
 reproductive services, leading gun violence reduction measures, and working 
 to provide compassionate aid to people that are homeless, or have been 
 forced into refugee or migrant status.\n\nCHRISTOPHER COOK is an author and 
 award-winning investigative journalist based in San Francisco. His writing 
 has appeared in numerous national publications such as The Atlantic, The 
 Economist, Mother Jones, The Nation, and The Progressive. Christopher won 
 an Aronson Award for an investigative report on welfare agencies, and a 
 Project Censored Award. He recently published an essay relevant to our 
 discussion: ​It’s Time for a National Mobilization Against 
 Fascism.\n\nPAUL GEORGE has been the director of Peninsula Peace and 
 Justice Center for the past 35 years, in which time he has organized some 
 of the largest protests to take place on the Peninsula. Paul has been a 
 dedicated grassroots activist and organizer for over 56 years. His work has 
 taken him from ground zero at the Nevada Nuclear Weapons Test Site to the 
 war zones of Central America. Paul has been hosting the monthly program 
 Other Voices for nearly 30 years, starting as a lecture series held in 
 PPJC’s offices, then to a TV studio, and now on Zoom.\n
