DESCRIPTION:Please join us on the eve of so-called “Thanksgiving" while we protest 
 the killing of millions of animals on occupied Turtle Island known as 
 “The United States” by saying no thanks to stolen lives on stolen 
 land.\n\nIt’s good for people to have a day off that they can spend alone 
 or with friends and family, but it’s disgusting and unjust to celebrate 
 the invasion of Turtle Island at all, let alone by merrily feasting on the 
 bodies of animals. Our dear turkey friends get it terribly, but no one is 
 spared and the indigenous peoples still have been removed from the land by 
 genocide and other colonial mechanisms.\n\nWe’ll meet at the intersection 
 of Chabot Road and College Ave in Oakland and walk to the nearby Safeway to 
 say no thanks for stolen lives on stolen land, then we'll head to Rockridge 
 Trader Joe’s to protest on the public sidewalk and call on Trader Joe’s 
 to drop Perdue’s Petaluma Poultry as it is a particularly horrendous 
 operation, routinely boiling chickens alive and exploiting and abusing its 
 workers.\n\nWHERE: Intersection of Chabot Road and College Ave, Oakland, 
 CA, outside Crossroads Trading Co.\nWHEN: 5:00pm Wednesday, November 26th, 
 2025\nWEAR: Whatever you like\nWHO: Everyone is welcome! However, please do 
 not come if you have or recently had symptoms of or exposure to 
 COVID-19.\nACCESSIBILITY: There will be some standing and a .3 mile walk. 
 We’ll have a couple chairs on hand in case anyone needs to 
 rest.\n\n---\n\nDirect Action Everywhere (DxE) is a grassroots network of 
 animal rights activists. Through open rescue, demonstration, and 
 disruption, we help build a world where every animal is safe, happy and 
 free.\n\nDxE cultivates a welcoming and supportive community. We ask that 
 all those who attend our events (online and offline) respect our Code of 
 Conduct which can be reviewed at dxe.io/conduct.\n\nTo learn about our 
 vision, goals, strategy and more check out the San Francisco Bay Area 
 chapter Activist Handbook here: dxe.io/handbook\n
