SUMMARY:Go Blue '22—The Berkeley Democratic Club's Gala
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Berkeley Democratic Club’s Gala is Saturday\, March 12\, 6–8 p.m.\, at Cornerstone Berkeley (2367 Shattuck Ave). Purchase your Gala ticket $50.00 – $500.00 https://www.eventbrite.com/e/go-blue-22-the-berkeley-democratic-clubs-gala-tickets-208363780677 \nWe are delighted to invite you to join the Berkeley Democratic Club and special guest Assemblymember Buffy Wicks\, Berkeley City Councilmembers\, and City Auditor for a night of merriment and community-building to bring in the new year and prepare for the most important election season in our lifetimes. With midterms traditionally heralding a divided federal government\, and President Biden’s ambitious green infrastructure agenda and voting rights reform hanging in the balance\, it’s more important than ever for grassroots organizers to work together and turn out voters to push the Democratic Party’s agenda forward and protect the planet for future generations. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll politics is local politics\, and the struggle ahead of us starts right here at home. The Berkeley Democratic Club is the oldest Democratic Club in Alameda County\, and the oldest Democratic Club in California still active today. Founded in 1934 to support Upton Sinclair’s inspiring campaign for Governor as part of his movement to End Poverty In California (EPIC)\, we’re proud to champion Democratic causes locally and abroad. Berkeley is the birthplace of the Free Speech Movement. Berkeley was a home location for the Black Panther Party’s revolutionary stand against police brutality and poverty in African American communities throughout the United States. It’s our civic duty to carry these traditions forward and fight for equality\, justice\, and environmental sustainability in our own backyard so that Berkeley can continue to shine as a beacon of effective\, progressive Democratic governance. \nWe provide educational resources\, community events\, and electoral advocacy to empower all Berkeley residents with the tools to hold local institutions accountable and build a more egalitarian society. We are blessed with the power and responsibility to change the world for the better. Together we are Democracy\, and together we win.

SUMMARY:International Women's Day March | Women's Humanity & Rights!
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe Supreme Court stands poised to gut and very possibly overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that established the right of women to abortion. A decision is expected by late Spring. \nThis comes on top of hundreds of restrictions that effectively deny this essential right to huge numbers of women already. This could trigger more than 20 states to immediately ban or severely restrict abortion. \nThe attack on abortion rights is part of a patriarchal Christian fascist program that takes aim at contraception as well as LGBTQ rights. Denying the right to abortion hits poor women\, and especially Black and other women of color\, with vicious consequence – tightening the chains of both white supremacy and the subjugation of women.

SUMMARY:Multicultural Democracy and The Place of Reparations
DESCRIPTION:In Celebration of Black History Month \nMonday\, Feb. 28\, 2022 | 6:30p – 7:30p \nZoom Link | https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86337975575 \nJoin us for this event: Professor Charles Henry as he speaks on Multicultural Democracy and The Place of Reparations \nDr. Henry\, Professor Emeritus of African American Studies at the University of California at Berkeley\, holds a doctorate in political science from the University of Chicago. Henry has published nine books and over eighty articles on race and politics\, public policy\, and human rights. He has previously taught at Denison and Howard Universities. \n*After the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis\, as the nation grappled with how to right a long history of wrongs\, California took a momentous step in the name of racial equity. In September 2020\, the state created a task force to study and recommend reparations for Black Californians\, particularly those descended from slaves. The effort is the only one in the nation of this scale. \nIf you’re wondering\, yes\, California joined the union as a free state and never officially sanctioned slavery. But voters here supported pro-slavery politics for decades and\, through a variety of discriminatory housing\, voting\, and criminal justice policies\, hampered the ability of Black Americans to accumulate wealth and get ahead\, experts say. \n*excerpt: The New York Times | December 2021 \n

SUMMARY:Petition: Act Now for Climate Justice
DESCRIPTION:The communities at greatest risk from climate change are those least responsible for causing it. Extreme heat and drought\, storms\, floods\, and mudslides — the impacts of climate change are here\, and they’re exacerbating already-dire humanitarian emergencies around the world. \nMercy Corps works with communities deeply affected by the climate crisis\, supporting resilience and adaptation for millions of people in countries around the world. From enabling climate-smart livelihoods to reducing flood risk\, our work centers the needs and opportunities of those most exposed to the changing climate — and with the fewest resources to adapt. \nClimate change is an existential threat to all of humanity\, but it doesn’t affect everyone equally. Right here and now\, for billions of people managing the impacts of climate change\, survival is a daily challenge. For those of us who are fortunate not to confront these daily impacts firsthand\, it’s our responsibility to stand with those who do. \nAt the link below\, add your name to stand with the people and communities most vulnerable to climate change.

He’s now running in a newly configured California Congressional District #8 which is described below.  On January 17\, we are arranging a Zoom meeting with John.

It requires just registering for the event and logging into the Zoom meeting on January 17 at 6:00 pm. Thanks so much.

Governor. In 2009\, he was elected to the US House of Representatives representing most of Contra Costa County. He is now running for re-election in the newly formed CA-08 district which includes West and North Contra Costa County\, including the cities of El Cerrito\, Richmond\, San Pablo\, Pinole\, Hercules\, Rodeo\, Crocket\, Martinez\, Bay Point\, Antioch\, and Pittsburg. It also covers a majority of Solano County including Vallejo\, Benicia\, Fairfield\, Suisun City\, and a portion of Vacaville.

That is why he has championed universal paid family leave\, affordable housing\, cheaper prescription drugs\, universal healthcare\, cleaner air and water\, affordable education\, and so many other policies that would relieve the pressure that working Americans face. \n \n To hear more from John and to engage with him directly\, please register in advance at this address:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUlf-GhrzkpG9dzf9zouskb1ouVUVDaT_XD\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email from zoom with instructions for joining the meeting.\n

SUMMARY:Engaging Elders in Climate Action
DESCRIPTION:Automated | AI captioning will be provided at this event. \nRSVP: Engaging Elders Bill McKibben Presentation\nSend Email: info@ashbyvillage.org\n\nJoin Ashby Village Elder Action & Village Movement California for this Climate Action Event \n\nSince 1989\, with his bestseller The End of Nature\, New Yorker writer and climate visionary Bill McKibben has been at the forefront of inspiring climate action. In 2008\, along with university students and friends\, he co-founded 350.org\, now a grassroots global network mobilizing millions of young people in the existential crisis of our lifetimes: the survival of humanity.\n\nSo far\, it’s been mostly young people who’ve spoken out about the climate crisis. But recently\, McKibben has focused on engaging an older generation of Americans that might help tip the balance in time. \n\nThe good news? It’s OUR generation! As he and his colleague Akaya Windwood recently wrote in an Los Angeles Times op-ed\, it’s time for us to step up to seek an impact on climate via Third Act\, a new national network of elders supporting younger activists. Ashby Village’s Elder Action has been invited to become a founding partner. \n\nOn Sunday\, January 9\, 2022\, from 2-4PM PST\, Bill McKibben will make the next presentation for our Ashby Village Arts & Culture Series about Third Act\, co-sponsored by Village Movement California\, the statewide association of California Villages. He promises to inform us how to tap our strengths— our experience\, networks\, time\, and wisdom—for our most valuable legacy: protecting the future of our children\, grandchildren and the human species. \n\nPlease join us to learn what we can do together about the climate crisis—and to acquaint Bill McKibben with our Villages and what we can bring to Third Act. You may never attend a more compelling or hopeful presentation! \nZoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86710807483

SUMMARY:Sign the Petition | Protecting Our Democracy Act
DESCRIPTION:It’s been one year since the attack on our Capitol\, and mounting evidence suggests a number of elected Republicans helped plan\, promote\, and excuse Jan. 6. The congressional commission continues their efforts to understand the attack and prevent it from happening again. But they’ve been continually stonewalled by Trump’s allies who refuse congressional subpoenas\, claiming executive privilege. \nPresidents invoking executive privilege to skirt responsibility for their actions is not a new phenomenon. It happened in 1792 when George Washington refused to supply Congress with documents related to a military campaign against Native Americans. It happened during the investigation into the Watergate break-in when Richard Nixon invoked executive privilege six times. And it’s happening now as former President Donald Trump’s allies continue to refuse subpoenas from the January 6 commission. \nSign and send the petition to the Senate: Pass the Protecting Our Democracy Act! \nJust as Congress did after Watergate\, we must again enact new laws and reforms to strengthen our democratic institutions against future presidents – both Democrats and Republicans – who seek to undermine them. We must restore faith in the U.S. government and institutions. These reforms shouldn’t be partisan or controversial\, and many of the proposals have had bipartisan support in the past. \nThe bill will prevent presidential abuses by: \n\npreventing abuse of ardon power;\nensuring no president is above the law;\nand enforcing the Foreign and Domestic Emoluments Clauses of the Constitution.\n\nThe bill will also strengthen accountability and transparency by: \n\nenforcing congressional subpoenas;\nreasserting congressional power of the purse;\nstrengthening congressional oversight of presidential emergency declarations;\nand protecting whistleblowers and inspector general independence.\n\nNo matter their party\, no president should be above the law. Sign and send the petition to the Senate: Pass the Protecting Our Democracy Act!

DESCRIPTION:In the United States alone\, billionaires reportedly added $1 trillion to their collective wealth since the start of the pandemic. \nTen billionaires made enough money in the pandemic to cover the cost of coronavirus vaccinations for the entire world\, with funds leftover. \nMeanwhile\, the rest of us have been devastated by rising unemployment and an inability to pay rent or mortgage payments. \nAnd our social safety net has proven woefully inadequate. \nAt the link below\, sign the petition to Congress: We need a wealth tax now\, more than ever.

SUMMARY:Petition: To President Biden—Cancel at Least $50\,000 in Student Debt per Borrower
DESCRIPTION:Wiping out $10\,000 vs. $50\,000 of student debt is a question of whether Biden will help only 14 million people—or 36 million people. And it’s about reducing the student debt burden by $400 billion\, or $1 trillion. If we really want to have an impact\, it’s clear what needs to happen. \nAt the link below\, sign the petition to President Biden: You can—and you must—eliminate at least $50\,000 in student debt per borrower.

SUMMARY:Reimagining Public Safety in Berkeley -Take The Survey-
DESCRIPTION:Help the City of Berkeley develop a new model of public safety that reflects the needs of our community by completing a brief online survey to inform a plan for restructuring the City of Berkeley’s approach to violence prevention\, crisis intervention\, policing\, and community safety. \nWe want to know what health and safety issues you’re most concerned about and what programs and services you see as key to community safety. \nComplete the survey online in English or Spanish by June 15. All responses are anonymous. \nThis survey is part of a larger effort to create a public safety paradigm in Berkeley that aims to continue Police Department work on violent and criminal matters and de-escalation while redirecting some funding currently spent on policing to violence prevention and diversion programs\, including those targeted on domestic violence\, youth outreach\, mental health\, crisis response\, substance abuse\, housing\, and homeless services\, and restorative justice. \nThis work is being guided by a task force of community stakeholders and supported by consultants from the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform. Components of the Reimagining Public Safety initiative passed as an omnibus package by the City Council in the summer of 2020\, include: \n\na pilot program to reassign non-criminal police service calls to a team consisting of trained crisis-response workers (Specialized Care Unit)\ncreating a Department of Transportation to ensure a racial justice lens in enforcing parking regulations and traffic laws and in the development of transportation policy\, programs and infrastructure\naudits of 9-1-1 calls and the Police Department budget\n\nThe survey is one piece of a community engagement effort that also includes small group listening sessions\, stakeholder focus groups\, and a citywide town hall. Sign up for email updates to be notified of future engagement opportunities. \nThese efforts build on Berkeley’s longstanding commitment to creating a more equitable community and support the City’s Strategic Plan goals to “champion and demonstrate social and racial equity” and to “create a resilient\, safe\, connected\, and prepared City.”
