<br />
==The Ligure Club==<br />
The Ligure Club’s roots are founded in Temescal district of Oakland, which for much of the 20th century was a thriving Italian community. The Ligure Club takes its name from Ligoria, a region in northern Italy that includes the port city of Genova, and from which many of the club’s original members came from.<br />
<br />
===The Oakland Scavenger Company===<br />
At the turn of the last century, a large wave of Italian immigration brought many Ligurians from Genoa to San Francisco. Since only the lowliest jobs were open to unskilled immigrants, many of the Genoese newcomers began scavenging for garbage in horse-drawn wagons. As competition in San Francisco was fierce, some of these immigrants settled in the East Bay, most of them living in West Oakland.<br />
<br />
The 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire drove thousands of refugees across the bay, altering the demographic makeup of various Oakland neighborhoods. Almost overnight, the Temescal district became “Little Italy,” drawing its new residents from San Francisco and West Oakland.<br />
<br />
The Genovese scavengers who moved to Temescal continued their activities as independent garbage collectors until 1909, when rivalry induced them to form the the Oakland Scavenger Association. This co-op incorporated in 1915 as the Oakland Scavenger Company. Every employee of this all-Italian membership corporation was a shareholder, and shares were transferred by their owners only to family members or other shareholders.<br />
<br />
As a testament to the growing power of the Oakland Scavenger, in 1933 the city of Oakland named a street near its garbage wharf after the company’s longtime president, Thomas Ferro.<br />
<br />
===The Beginning of a Club===<br />
Business prowess offered no guarantee of social acceptance. Like other Italian-American groups, the Genovese scavengers of Temescal socialized within their own circle. In the early 1930’s this included an informal gathering of a few Italian friends in Joe Mangini's basement where they would meet to crush grapes and make homemade wine. When they had finished, they would often sit and share stories over a glass of wine and some cold cuts. This evolved into a weekend ritual, and soon Joe suggested turning this informal group of friends into a formal social club. Giulio Biggi offered his basement for the group’s first meeting and the Ligure Club was born.<br />
<br />
The first official meeting of the Ligure Club was held January 27, 1933. According to the records, this meeting was attended by what is considered to be the twelve founding members of the Ligure Club, these members being: S. Banchero, Giulio Biggi, Ricardo Cademartori, Andrea Casazza, Angelo Corsiglia, D. Costa, F. Figone, Ernesto Gelso, Joseph Mangini, Silvio Mangini, Angelo Reggiardo and Joe Rettagliata. The club's first elected officers at the time were: President Angelo Reggiardo, Vice President Joseph Mangini, Corresponding Secretary Giulio Biggi and Treasurer Andrea Casazza.<br />
<br />
===Ligure Hall===<br />

</gallery><br />
<br />
John Ginochio was considered the “father” of the Ligure Club as he helped to evolve the club from small social gatherings in the basements of members located in the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland to larger gatherings in a formal clubhouse. In order to accomplish this Ginochio founded an organization called the Ligure Hall Association in order to raise funds for the construction of a new clubhouse. Ginochio was the first and only president of the Ligure Hall Association. They raised $30,000 to erect the Ligure Hall opened its doors on December 7, 1934, at 4799 Shattuck Avenue in Oakland.<br />
<br />
The 21,000-square-foot building was designed in Mediterranean style, with a whitewashed stucco walls and clay-tile gable roofs. The two-story wing facing Shattuck Avenue had a separate entrance leading to a lofty, 66-by-56 foot ballroom. At the street corner, a hexagonal turret flanked by somewhat lower wings opened onto a long barroom, which in turn led to an indoor bocce ball court located behind the ballroom. Facing 48th Street, a taller, flat roof annex enclosed a large room on the second floor. A kitchen and banquet hall occupied the basement.<br />
<br />
===Relocating The Club===<br />
By 1962, the Ligure Club had more than 900 members, but flight to the suburbs eroded the membership at a time when social integration was reducing the need for exclusively Italian clubs.<br />
<br />
The Ligure Club operated at this Shattuck Avenue location until 1981, when financial issues and dwindling membership forced the club to close clubhouse and sell the building, and relocate its activities to the Fratellanza Club.<br />
<br />
Today the Ligure Club is a thriving social organization that continues to supports the Italian community. Club events continue to be hosted at the Fratellanza Club, which is located at 1140 66th Street in Oakland.<br />

=Omni Collective=<br />
<br />
A Collective of Collectives in Oakland, California. See [[Founding Document]] for governance.<br />
<br />
''From Latin omni-, "all, every, the whole, of every kind,"''<br />
<br />
OMNI Oakland Collective is comprised of several Bay Area collectives. Its express purpose is to build consensus among member collectives with minimal possible bureaucracy for the administration of a common space and sharing of resources for the use and stewardship of the greater community.<br />
<br />
The point of the OMNI Oakland Collective is NOT to function as any sort of governing body for the groups involved in any general sense. There are no senators. Its only and sole point is to administer the space, pay bills, make group decisions about the shared space, resolve any conflicts between the groups in the space, interface with the state, banks, authorities, etc. Logistics and bureaucracy: That's it.<br />

<hr />
<div>Timeless, Infinite Light will be hosting the first in a series of CONSENT Workshops in collaboration with a local community accountability group and GIRL ARMY. This workshop will be held Saturday September 13th from 1-4pm in the Omni ballroom.<br />
<br />
== Feminist Hydra presents: GIRL ARMY ==<br />
<br />
The feminist hydra wants to ask ourselves and you: how do we create feminist, non-binary and queer space? Space we can actually live in?<br />
<br />
To that end, we'll be hosting a workshop series at the Omni, starting with GIRL ARMY, a collective dedicated to peer taught, affordable, physical and psychological self-defense for women and/or trans folks in Oakland, CA.<br />
<br />
=== Melisa Spence of Girl Army will offer a donation-based Self-Defense Course ===<br />
<br />
In this mix of physical and verbal exercises, body language (breath/voice/stance), pressure points, escapes and strikes will be covered, as will verbal boundary-setting. <br />
<br />
The workshop is intended to offer participants many options so that they can take what resonates for them into their lives.<br />
<br />
We have 20 available spots (suggested donation $0-$20 sliding scale) for female-identified, non-binary, and trans-identified folks. To sign up, reply to feminist.hydra@gmail.com with your name and the best way to reach you by Friday September 5th.<br />
<br />
If we have more than 20 sign-ups, we will choose the 20 participants by lottery, and will keep a waiting list.<br />
<br />
FYI, two cis-men, Melisa Spence’s former students, will be participating in the workshops.<br />
<br />

<br />
== About the Feminist Hydra ==<br />
<br />
The Feminist Hydra is a small group of variously identified poets, book artists, performance artists, community organizers, mothers, queers, allies, and arts educators. We are interested in developing community around empowerment, accountability and communication; and in the intersections of experimental poetics and radical politics with feminist, anti-racist, anti-classist, and ally work.<br />
<br />
We are also tired. Tired of thinking we should say something, but that we don’t know what to say or who we can trust to say it to. Tired of watching our friends drift away from readings and arts events because they aren’t supported. Tired of muzzling ourselves, of tying ourselves up in knots, of going along to get along, of patching each other up.<br />
<br />
We want to do our part to build a community in which we have each others’ backs.<br />
<br />
