Hey John,
This is our last meetup of 2020! This year has been perhaps the most turbulent and stressful year of our lives. In spite of the challenges we have all faced, we have come together as a community like never before and achieved so much for animals, and for each other! Join us at our Meetup: How Far We Have Come in 2020 this Saturday, December 26th, at 11AM. See the event page for Zoom link instructions.
If you're interested in getting more involved in this active community, apply to become a chapter member at dxe.io/apply.
Here are the other events we have happening this week (all will be taking place in Pacific Time, unless otherwise noted).
- Friday, December 25th, 5 PM: Solidarity Speaker: Supporting the Community & Fighting on the Frontlines with F12 - This is our last solidarity speaker of 2020! This month we are excited to learn from and listen to activists with F12. F12 is a local group that works to confront white supremacy, police, and politicians on the front lines. They provide security and do traffic control for Black youth-led protests and actions. In doing so they also offer a counter presence to white supremacist's actions. They hold vigils in honor of those murdered by police and also do direct work to feed the houseless community. They fundraise to support direct action and defense work. This is not necessarily an organization, but an organic group of speakers, photographers, a medical expert, graphic artists, rappers, poets, illustrators, and more and that pool together their resources and skill sets for autonomy in Black and Brown communities. See the event page for the Zoom link.
- Saturday, December 26th, 1 PM: Community Beach Clean Up - Join us this coming December 26th to to pick up trash, big and small, and ensure that the area is cleaned for everyone, human and nonhuman animals to enjoy. We share this environment with animals and they deserve to have a clean and free habitat as well! We will meet at Fulton St and Great Highway (San Francisco) to meet and brief. Supplies will be provided but you are welcomed to bring your own.
- Sunday, December 27th, 5 PM: New Year, New You: Get Active for Animals in 2021 - Do you want to change the world for animals? Are you looking for a community of like-minded people? Or maybe you’re just curious about animal rights in general? Whatever your motivation, if you want to learn about how you can get active for animals, this event is for you! The devastating impacts of animal exploitation become clearer each year, from pandemics like COVID-19 to worsening wildfires and the horrific abuse of animals and workers inside farms and slaughterhouses. We are in a crisis and the time to act is now! With January 1st just around the corner, make a resolution to be part of the change in 2021. Join a Zoom call with experienced activists, learn about the various ways you can put your skills and interests to use, and get all your questions answered. We’ll go over some activism basics, give you the opportunity to try out some tactics right from your home, and have time for Q&A. See the event page for the Zoom link.
