imagesMarch and Rally To Save Hotel Petaluma!
(April 14th at 2pm, Penry Park, Petaluma)

The tenants of the Hotel Petaluma are demanding that the eviction of their homes be stopped, or else they are demanding re-location assistance of $1,000 to help them find a new place to live. They are also demanding the prompt return of their rental deposits.

Property-owner Terence Andrews has threatened tenants, refused to return rental deposits (effectively stealing from low-income disabled tenants), and damaged residents health by engaging in heave construction while people are still living there!

Sonoma County Solidarity is having another demand delivery!  This delivery is for a woman named Marisa who was fired from her job at the Osmosis Spa in west county, under very confusing circumstances and without warning, had something to do with her sister. Our demand is to ask for about $300 in back wages that she is owed.

Here is the facebook event!

Public Meeting To Defend Hotel Petaluma!
(Tuesday, March 26, 2013, St Vincent de Paul Church, 35 Liberty St, Petaluma, 6pm)

The 100+ residents of the Hotel Petaluma are being evicted so that its new owner, Terence Andrews, can turn it into a hotel for tourists. He is offering no assistance to the tenants, many of whom are elderly and disabled. The Hotel Petaluma Tenants Committee has formed to resist this injustice and we need your help!

images (1)Take Back The Night!
(Thursday, March 28, 2013 4:00pm until 11:00pm, SRJC)

”This historical march which dates back to the 70′s shines light on the reality that every time we step outside, particularly at night, we worry about and fear the possibility of rape and sexual harassment. Thus, to directly call out the patriarchal oppression which keeps wymyn, trans folk, and gender ambiguous people from feeling safe walking at night, the Wymyns & Trans Caucus is hosting Take Back The Night. ”
