As Oscars weekend starts — in the face of fires & fascism — a coalition of entertainment, hospitality & grassroots groups invites Los Angeles to gather in celebration of solidarity and our collective power to rebuild and resist.

We gather to celebrate and –
To support queer/women led cultural collaborations rooted in creativity & sustainability.
To savor cultural reclamation & the refusal of erasure.
To surge solidarity with Palestine & Indigenous justice struggles everywhere.

“There are millions of Palestinian refugees all over – so when we think about our food sovereignty it's about cultural preservation in the places that we’re in, and that's inevitably interconnected with the other people and struggles in the places that we’re in. We’re part of an ecosystem, and there’s an opportunity there to not just interlink our struggles – but interlink our resistance with other Indigenous communities.” –
