The Drug Users Union is an international organization dedicated to the development of leadership and civic engagement/activism in drug using communities worldwide. The so-called War on Drugs has caused far more harm than it has prevented--not only to drug users, but indeed, to society as a whole. The stigma created by WoD propaganda serves only to demonize drug users, transforming us into one of the most unfairly scapegoated communities in the world. When we internalize this manufactured stigma, …

We're a group of sex workers, clients, taxpayers, freedom lovers, and people from all walks of life working together to stop the immoral, wasteful, and futile practice of arresting and prosecuting consensual sexual acts. Thank you to everyone who helped work to pass Proposition K on the November 2008 ballot here in San Francisco to decriminalize prostitution! While we were unsuccessful this time, we did receive over 41% of the vote, and served notice once again that our movement is not going awa …

Are you concerned that we're losing our civil liberties and that the authorities are not respecting people's basic human rights? Are you sick of high taxes and fees and out-of-control government spending? The Libertarian Party, the third largest political party in the United States, is based on a live-and-let-live approach to public policy that combines the tolerant social values of the left and the fiscally responsible values of the right. We believe that you should be able to do what you wan …

Oakland Activists and Revolutionary Thinkers is a group for those who want to meet like minded folks and engage in activism, revolutionary discussions and dialogue. Let's find ways to affect change in Oakland, attend community and cultural events, documentaries, and other events related to revolutionary thought. Think of the Black Panther Party, Young Lords, Brown Berets, AIM. While this group isn't geared towards building a group of that caliber, the ideology is the inspiration behind the creat …

A lot of good work is being done from within the Bay Area to address global development issues. This Group serves as a space where those involved in and dedicated to this work can commune, share and socialize.

This is a group for anyone interested in building community while reading awesome books. We'll primarily be reading books with social justice themes, or books by authors who often get left out of mainstream book clubs. I started the group because I'm new to the Bay and want to meet other folks interested in building community through intentional dialogue. Beer, wine, or the beloved mimosa will always be an option at meet ups. Book club meetings will happen once a month, but once we get started, …

Do you think there has to be a better kind of society - one where we can live in solidarity and cooperation, where we aren't destroying the planet and where production is based on social need, not private profit? Let's get together to get a better understanding of what is wrong with the rule of Corporate America and how it can be changed and what we can do to bring about a change. The premise is that none of us is really all that different from those living around us here in Oakland. Discussions …

Happy New Year! I remember you all from the original group that began in Pacifica. My members and meetups were so limited there.  But we had fun while it lasted! I have since moved to downtown San Mateo, and am reviving this group! Let's go drink and chat! I have a few new members that I am extremely excited about.  And even a new fellow organizer!  Coming soon! "San Francisco is a very vegetarian friendly city, and we are so lucky for that! However, on the outskirts of the city, in towns such …

[FYI: this group is not run by Dr. Michael Brown. In fact, he has nothing to do with it nor indorses it or even knows of its existence as of this writing] In his book, "A Queer Thing Happened to America" (offered on Amazon), Dr. Michael Brown takes a factual look at the history and impact of the Homosexual Agenda. Could it be that like Feminism today, what might have started out as a good thing, a right not to be abused and to be treated humanly, has gone too far? Is it out of control? Can …

What if your sense that something is wrong with what society tells you that relationships "should be" was your intuitive sense that there has to be something better and more that what the culture currently offers? What if we all got together and considered a new, upgraded format for intimate relationships? Let's do it! If you are interested in human sexual psychology and want real insights into why many relationships don't work and what you could do about it, this is the place for you. If you wa …

Our purpose is to create a public forum where believers in Jesus Christ and those seeking to learn more about The Father, The Son and The Holy Ghost can meet up to help spread awareness about Global Tyranny. There are evils we see physically and there are evils we battle spiritually. This group will show how they're connected. All evil being done ultimately comes from the evil one, the devil. The only way to defeat this evil within yourself is through the teachings of Jesus Christ, which ultimat …

Are you tired of trying to find the right place to meet mature (48-65 ish), eligible single folks?  I am.  Bars send the wrong message; singles events are mainly about dancing and loud music with no opportunity to actually get to know folks; dating websites are expensive or just not very helpful and some other meetup groups seem to more like a singles "meat market", only for young folks, or they are non-singles events. I have started this group because I love going out to dinner and socializing …

Let's face it, we all could use more playtime, whether you're a dog or human, and our dogs can never get too much socialization and exercise.  It's in their nature to want to be social, and more active they are, healthier they will be (mentally and physically), same goes for us humans!  :) This group will meet regularly, dedicated to doing fun hikes or long walks in beautiful locations all around in and around San Francisco Bay Area. The goal is to have a regular calendar of events going so the …

The voice of the Divine Feminine is re-emerging in human consciousness bringing with Her a new vision of the sacredness and unity of life. Her voice is needed during these chaotic times. Our stressful, fast paced culture that emphasizes masculine ideals such as competitiveness, control and domination often confuses and dis-empowers women. Confused as to what is appropriate feminine behavior, many women become over-involved in care taking others, are afraid to say no, or to set healthy boundaries …

We are a group of like minded vegans, "veg-curious", and those wanting to deepen their understanding of veganism and compassionate living. Our purpose is to provide opportunities to engage with others to learn, share, and receive support to speak your truth. Topics include how to deal with social challenges in a non-vegan world, personal well-being and diet, global concerns, etiquette, advancing the journey, activism, recipe sharing, and resources. The agenda and format for each meetup will be d …

We read ingredient labels. We're always looking for healthier ways, safer things, or we're attempting to consume less, tread more lightly... We're not heavy, we're sistahs, and we like to have fun while learning from each other. Connecting women who have green businesses, ideas, experiences... Some of us have already taken giant steps towards sustainability & greener living; some would like to take baby steps to "go greener" but don't have the support network to make it happen. Let's connect onl …

The spectrum of human DNA overlaps with the spectrum of the sunrise and the sunset enabling us to tune in the best time of day for our skin to see the sun; the best time of day to promote a radiant appearance, health, and Vitamin D, without any damage. There will be two such time frames each day; one after sunrise and one before sunset. What's the best time for you? What about the effects of clouds, forests, elevation, or other atmospheric conditions? The only way to know is to collect the data. …

Opening To Relationship Gatherings are happening! We'll be exploring many ways in which we humans get ourselves into entanglements (without even knowing how or why) that end up blocking lasting, fulfilling relationships. Get out of your old interrelational rat wheel and come find out how your relationships may be improved. There are key associations, hard-wired into human automatic response systems, associated with relationships of all kinds that raise old familial patterns that often feel impos …
