**UPDATE!! The location of this protest has been set going forward for all 4th Saturdays of the month every month (and is no longer rotating). We will be at Tennent Ave. and San Pablo Ave. in Pinole in the open space across from Tina’s place.

We participate and activate hyper-locally in this non-violent and peaceful social and cultural movement to protest authoritarianism in the U.S. and are building volunteer people power that is sustained, consistent, and unrelenting, until everyone is moved from their apathy and into action to stand up for democracy and re-dedicate themselves to building a better one. Only we, the people, can save us!

11 AM – 12 PM – Peacefully Protest – meet at the corner, bring your signs, Bluetooth speakers with music, noise-makers, and a passion for people power!” (https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/813154/ for more information and if you want to register)
