SUMMARY:Solidarity Vigil with Palestine - Denounce Land Day Massacre
DESCRIPTION:On March 30\, 2018\, Israeli military forces callously killed 17 unarmed Palestinian protestors and injured hundreds more in Gaza. The protestors were part of the Great Return March as well as marking Land Day.\nCanadian government officials have not uttered any word to condemn this massacre\, let alone apply any sanctions. Canadian media\, including the CBC\, have tried to obscure Israel’s crimes by talking about “clashes” and “confrontations” and “rioting”. However\, the Israeli military themselves admitted in a tweet that they later deleted: “everything was accurate and measured\, and we know where every bullet landed.” Israeli media has shown multiple pictures of Israeli snipers lined up on earth embankments\, ready to fire at civilians. Which they did\, shooting people kneeling in prayer and shooting others in the back as they were moving away from the border.\nWe demand that Israel be held accountable for these continued crimes against the Palestinian people; it is only because of the lack of action and complicity from Western countries that Israel acts with such impunity!\nList of endorsing organizations to be posted soon.\nWe acknowledge that this event takes places on the unceded territories of our indigenous brothers and sisters.

SUMMARY:Hey Trudeau! Kinder Morgan Has Got to Go!
DESCRIPTION:After nearly 200 arrests on Burnaby Mountain of people taking bold action to stop Kinder Morgan\, this Thursday\, Justin Trudeau is scheduled to be in Vancouver raising money for his own re-election campaign. That’s right Trudeau is fundraising at the same time he’s trying to shove an unwanted pipeline through Vancouver\, Burnaby and all of BC. \nNot on our watch. On Thursday April 5th\, let’s show the Prime Minister that he is not welcome on unceded Coast Salish territories — not while he is ramming a reckless tar sands pipeline through without Indigenous consent. \n**Here’s the plan**\n5:30 – Gather at the Vancouver Art Gallery\n5:45 – March to the fundraiser at the Sheraton Wall Centre 1088 Burrard St.\n6:00 – 7:30 Arrive at the fundraiser as donors and attendees arrive to make noise and make sure Trudeau knows how much supporting KM will cost him. \n***In order order to make this as loud as possible\, we need everyone to bring two items from home – a pot or pan and a wooden spoon. It’s a tactic that Quebec students and community members used in 2012 to make a whole lot of noise\, and we think that Trudeau needs his ears to ring with our opposition\, so please\, bring out a pot or pan and a wooden spoon. *** \nWe don’t have the money to get into Trudeau’s event\, but we do have people power\, and we can show that no amount of dollars is going to help this Prime Minister come election day if he continues to ignore our climate commitments\, disrespect Indigenous rights and put this coast in peril. \nWe’ll march together to Trudeau’s fundraiser\, where the Prime Minister hopes to fill his re-election coffers. With enough people outside\, he’ll have to spend the whole night explaining to these supporters why he’s willing to risk a catastrophic oil spill in their backyards.\n\nKid Friendly

SUMMARY:International Day Against Racism March
DESCRIPTION:The annual International Day Against Racism March\, marking the anniversary of the Sharpeville massacre in South Africa\, will be held in Vancouver starting at Thornton Park (Main Street Skytrain Station). Then we will march through Chinatown. This is where Indigenous\, Black\, Chinese\, Japanese and South Asian people lived historically. \nWe acknowledge that this event is being organized on the occupied\, traditional\, ancestral\, and unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples – specifically the sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish)\, sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh)\, and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) nations. \nWe also acknowledge that acts of systemic colonization and genocide against indigenous folks are currently taking place in an ongoing manner within institutions\, power structures\, and language use. We must partake in recognizing our positions and complicity in settler colonialism on these stolen ancestral lands. \nEndorsed by: Canadian Anti-racism Education and Research Society (CARES)\, UBC Social Justice Centre\, Radical Desis\, Latinos In Action\, Salaam Canada\, Siraat\, LGBTIQ2S+ Health Equity Collaborative\, Young Community League\, International Socialist.
