"Converge for direct actions and Knowland Park Defence Fest and Campout!"
For Immediate Release:
http://defendknowlandpark.org/2015/08/15/direct-actions-and-knowland-park-defence-convergence-fest-and-campout-this-week/
Defend Knowland Park! Direct Action and Call-in/Email Blast against Chain Link Fence and Supply Inc.
https://www.facebook.com/events/953130058065883/
Chain Link Fencing and Supply Inc. (a non-union company) has started to construct a mile-long perimeter fence around the proposed development. We can find no approved building permit for this construction so this fence may be "illegal". No permit is posted on-site and there has been no response about the fencing from the City building permit staff. Therefore, it is within our "legal" right to take direct action and stop fencing from going up .
It was also deeded to remain a public park forever but now that are trying to illegally privatize it!
Please Join us, Monday - August 19th at Knowland Park to demand their permit to work or if you cannot make it call and email their office repeatedly to jam their lines and respectfully demand information regarding their Work Permit for fencing construction at Knowland Park.
Monday - August 19th - 11 AM - Knowland Park entrance at the end of Edgemont way near Edgemont and Malcolm ave. - Oakland, CA

Friday August 21st!
Knowland Park Defence Convergence Festival and Campout! - Bands - Workshops - Films - and more!
https://www.facebook.com/events/1614671532091168/#
We are resisting a development that would cut down 400+ trees including a 600 year old Oak tree, put a fancy ass restaurant along with 60 other buildings on top of the most beautiful park in Oakland. Then they would cage a bunch of beautiful animals on it gentrifying the working class neighborhood. Please join us for a weekend of fun and Direct Action to stop the Oakland Zoo!
