Stand Up to Bigotry Next Week at White Supremacist UC Berkeley

Tweet Share Pin Share +1 Read Later The Freedom Socialist Party is part of Communities Against Racism and Fascism. We encourage everyone to participate in the counterdemonstrations outlined below. Stand Up to Bigotry Next Week at UC Berkeley   White supremacists are coming back to Berkeley on Sept. 24-27 and Communities Against Racism and Fascism (CARF) will be out protesting the bigots at their planned events.   Spearheaded by Milo Yiannoupoulos, the week of white supremacy at Berkeley is an attempt by the far right to portray themselves as victims being denied "free speech." They hope to gain sympathy and recruit to their cause. CARF knows that it is our first amendment right to oppose neo-fascist speech by joining with others to outnumber the supremacists at their rallies and send them packing with large, disciplined counter-demonstrations. History has shown that this kind of response can stop fascist movements while they are small.  CARF is organizing an anti-fascist response and calling on all communities targeted by the fascists to come out.    Join CARF in the counter-demonstrations at the following times:   Sunday, Sept. 24:   "Anti-feminism" day        Meet at Café Milano, 2522 Bancroft Way at 4:30pm sharp, then march to the      steps of Sproul Plaza, UC Berkeley campus.   Wednesday, Sept. 27:  "Anti-free speech" day.        Meet at Café Milano, 2522 Bancroft Way at 4:30pm sharp, then march to the      steps of Sproul Plaza, UC Berkeley campus. All are welcome to help prepare for these actions as well: Saturday, Sept. 23:  Workparty to make banners and placards.        New Valencia Hall, 747 Polk St. (near Ellis St.), San Francisco,12:00-2:00 p.m.   For more information, email CARFbayarea@gmail.com or visit the Facebook group ‘Communities Against Racism & Fascism’
