As Palestinians endure and report these atrocities to the rest of the world, we have heard their calls and yelled, cried, advocated, educated, organized, and mourned. For 2 years. Now is not the time to burn out and fall numb as our own country falls to incompetent fascists. We instead invite our friends, families, and allies to an anti-zionist Jewish ceremony of mourning and renewal on September 28th at 4 pm at Tuna Harbor Park. Please wear white.

Please join us. We use these funds to promote activism in San Diego and surrounding counties. Our organization is 99% volunteer run and yet it costs thousands every month to keep fully engaged in local grassroots organizing.

Activism in Action

Networking for social justice and building coalitions for change.

Activist San Diego usually meets every third Monday of the month, from 6-8pm in person at the Joyce Beers Community Center in Hillcrest, and online. Please subscribe to receive regular invitations via email.
