Dear Commoners,
>
> I write because North Oakland/South Berkeley friend, neighbor, and
> community leader Aunti Frances, of the Self-help Hunger Program
> <https://www.facebook.com/selfhelphungerprogram/>, is facing a no-fault
> eviction. With the Omni’s support we may be able to persuade Aunti
> Frances’s landlord, owner-resident Natalia Morphy, to stop the eviction.
> Natalia is known to identify with principles of social and ecological
> justice but is participating in exploiting an eviction loophole with her
> parents and co-landowners, Alexandra and James Morphy, and the notorious
> eviction law firm Bornstein and Bornstein.
>
> I ask all Omni delegates contact their collectives to seek an emergency
> consensus process regarding the following. I’ve already heard a yes from
> Phat Beets. By the end of Friday, Dec 1st, I’m hoping we can get approval
> to add the Omni’s (and our individual collective’s) signature to this community
> letter
> <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rhavYm6jkgOCrZ2OAV-0XUwBTP_ce_WskSwUsw1hPK4/edit?usp=sharing>.
> The consensus ask is simply to lend our name(s) to a cause that is
> perfectly in line with our statement of solidarity.
>
> Additionally, I have two asks I don’t think require consensus—first that
> folx confirm it would be okay to send additional updates to the discuss
> list about how we can support fighting Aunti Frances’s eviction. Second,
> that you confidentially ask those involved in your collectives to save
> noon Sunday December 10th for a details-to-be-announced public event in
> support of Aunti Frances, to be held at Drivers Plaza in Oakland.
>
> In solidarity,
>
> Julian, of BAPS, with Defend Aunti Frances
