What:  Life of Luis Commemoration and Thank You Picnic
Where:  The altar at Shotwell & 19th Streets, SF
When: Saturday, Oct 7, from 10 am - 5 pm

Saturday October 7th, 2017 will mark the one year and a half date of
Luís Góngora Pat's murder by police. Luis's family would like to mark
this important date with a thank you picnic for supporters.

Whether you came to the altar one day, walked with us, helped with our
homeless outreach Rosca de Reyes, brought your students, you took
interest in Luis's life, helped make the One Year Anniversary
Commemoration of Luis's stolen life significant, donated funds to the
family, you were his friend, and the countless other community efforts
with which you have accompanied us. Join us! Details forthcoming, but
we will meet at the altar as always at 10am on Shotwell and 19th, and
will likely march like we did the very first time we marched with the
family of Luis to Dolores Park to enjoy homemade cochinita pibil and
other delicious Mayan Yucatecan food.
