DESCRIPTION:EMERGENCY CALL TO ACTION!\n\nSan Francisco Rape Crisis Center under attack 
 for exploring connections between oppression and sexual violence\n\nSF 
 Women Against Rape  (SFWAR) needs your presence and support at a public 
 meeting before the Commission on the Status of Women, TOMORROW, Wednesday, 
 7/23 at 5 pm at San Francisco City Hall (Room 408).  Gather outside the 
 City Hall for a press conference at 4 pm.\n\nSFWAR stands against projects 
 anywhere in the world, including the US, South Africa, and Palestine, that 
 remove indigenous people from their land and construct the settlers as the 
 authentic people of the land.\n\nAs a result of this stance, inflammatory 
 articles misrepresenting SFWAR\nhave been published (see www.jewishsf.com). 
  SFWAR has also received numerous hate mail and death threats. 
 Additionally, funding that allows\nSFWAR to carry out its critical services 
 to the SF community is being threatened.\n\nWe need you to:\n\n*        
 Gather in front of the City Hall at 4 pm.\n*        Wear stickers to show 
 your support of SFWAR (available tomorrow).\n*        If media approach 
 you, please direct them to one of the appointed SFWAR 
 spokespersons.\n\nSFWAR is a women of color led rape crisis center that has 
 assisted thousands of survivors of sexual violence through direct services 
 and rape prevention education since its inception in 1973.\n\nSFWAR sees 
 sexual assault as both a symptom and a tool of other oppressions, and is 
 committed to work against all forms of oppression as part of the process of 
 ending sexual assault.\n\nSFWAR is urging its supporters and the community 
 at large to protect services for sexual assault survivors and the right to 
 facilitate discussions that explore the connections between oppressions and 
 sexual violence.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2004/02/03/22453.php
