The Bay Area rallies remained peaceful into the evening and the mood was decidedly different than last year, in the waning days of the Occupy movement. Two demonstrations were held in San Francisco, including a group of about 50 who started to march from Civic Center Plaza to an unoccupied building on Turk Street, but instead went to nearby Jefferson Square Park. About 1,000 people gathered..http://www.twitpic.com/cnqev0

#union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Bobby Seale 8:18 PM (edited) – Community – Seize the Time-Black Panther Party, 60's & Beyond (Discussion) Listen to The African History Network Show, Thursday, April 25th, 8pm-11pm EST with guest, Bobby Seale, Co-Founder of The Black Panther Party For Self Defense. It's one thing to read about history in the history books but it's totally different to hear history directly from a History Maker. #blackpanthers #blackpantherparty #bobbyseale The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense was founded in October of 1966, in Oakland California. The Party advocated Self-Defense of the Black Community against the racist murder and brutality of the Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond and San Francisco Police through armed patrols of police activities. The purpose of the armed patrols was to capture the imagination of the people for broader community electoral purposes as Huey and I observe the police making arrest of black people. The Party also fought to establish greater peoples' empowerment via community control politics, through mass organizing of more than twenty different community based survival programs. Listen to the show at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/theafricanhistorynetworkshow or www.TheAfricanHistoryNetwork.com or by phone, when we are LIVE at (914) 338-1375.

#union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty [AUDIO] Young, with a juvenile record, and looking for work http://www.marketplace.org/topics/wealth-poverty/young-juvenile-record-and-looking-work Seventeen-year-old Andrew is filling out a job application for a Jamba Juice in Oakland, Calif. He’s making his way through the basics, filling out his name and contact information. However, question five posed a challenge. It was a yes or no checkbox which read, “Have you ever been convicted of a crime?” “I will check yes,” said Andrew, who requested anonymity for this story. When he was 14, a high school freshman, he took a gun to school. It is a shocking act for many, especially in the wake of the Newtown, Conn., shootings, but Andrew says he did it to be cool. Three years later, he is haunted by that d…http://www.twitpic.com/cipce6

From creation myths to scientific explanations, from political ideologies to the quirky narratives that knead our own amorphous lives into some kind of distinctive shape, stories are essential — not only because they nudge the disconnected bits of reality we face moment to moment into a plausible and graspable form, but because they go to the heart of our identity and purpose. … The monumental change we need will hinge on a new way of looking at the world, and this in turn will be spurred on by powerful stories that bring that new worldview alive. … One of our most powerful alternative storytellers is Terry Messman. Messman is the editor of Street Spirit, a monthly newspaper published by the American Friends Service Committee that is sold by 100 homeless vendors on the streets of Oakland, Calif. #StreetSpirit — http://www.thestreetspirit.org/ #Occupy #Oakland Collapse this posthttp://www.twitpic.com/bxyc40

As any resident will tell you, it didn’t stop there. Now, former Occupy protesters have filed suit against Oakland and the county of Alameda, seeking class-action status and stating that the arrests violated their civil…http://www.twitpic.com/bwzwzv

The federal lawsuit filed Monday in San Francisco says 409 people were unlawfully arrested them outside the YMCA. The suit, seeking class-action status, claims civil rights were violated when they were held in jail for hours but were never charged with a crime. The suit says protesters weren’t given a dispersal order by law enforcement. The mass arrest occurred hours after protesters tried to take over the vacant Henry J.
