Dinner in San Francisco for a Cross-Country Bike Ride for Gaza

Thursday, May 29: Dinner in San Francisco for a Cross-Country Bike Ride for Gaza

Bob Sanders is a 70-year-old activist, a member of New Hampshire Peace Action and the founder of Not In My Name, NH, a group of Jewish Americans opposed to Israel's violence against Palestinians. On Friday, May 30, after flying in to San Francisco on May 28, Bob will embark on a cross-country bicycle ride for peace. He is calling it Ride Against War on Gaza (RAW GAZA); the message is one of protesting Israel’s war crimes against the Palestinian people. Bob did a similar ride based on a similar theme 50 years ago, and he is looking to repeat the feat.
The web site for the ride is https://nhpeaceaction.org/event/raw-gaza-x-country-tour/.
Peace Action of San Mateo County will have a dinner at the Palestinian restaurant Old Jerusalem, located at 2966 Mission St. (near 26th St.) in San Francisco. This is a no-host dinner open to 20 people. Old Jerusalem is less than a two-block walk from the 24th and Mission BART station. To RSVP or for more information, email Ron.

On Friday morning at 9 AM, Bob will officially begin his ride in San Francisco, possibly at Chrissy Field or at the Embarcadero, to the East Bay. There is an opportunity for other riders to begin the trip with him, and ride a mile or two, or many miles…up to them. Let Ron know about your interest in being a rider as well.
