"That the Intelligence
Unit monitor the October 4th meeting scheduled by 'Food Not Bombs".
San Francisco Police Captain Dick Holder
The "October 4th meeting" was in fact the regular monthly meeting of the
Haight Ashbury Neighborhood Council held at the Page Street Library.
Captain Holder had been presenting a report on the neighborhood at those
meetings since he had been appointed Captain of Park Station. The
attached publications were collected from our weekly meal at the
entrance to Golden Gate Park. The police had made 94 arrests in August
and September 1988 of people sharing food with Food Not Bombs at Haight
and Stanyan Streets.
Food Not Bombs was planning to provide food at a protest at the Concord
Navel Weapons Station in support of Brian Wilson and the other Veterans
For Peace who were protesting the shipment of bombs to be used against
the people of El Salvador. The protest was nonviolent. An informant
obtained Keith's phone number at a meeting to plan the protest.
That Thanksgiving people started to contact Food Not Bombs to
report that they had been approached by uniformed National Guards
personnel at airports on their way home from the holiday. Those
contacting Food Not Bombs would report that the soldiers would point to
their Food Not Bombs button and explain that they had just attended a
weekend course on domestic terrorism where Food Not Bombs was described
as "one of America's most hardcore terrorist groups" and that the logo
had been shown as part of the class. They also claimed that the sharing
of free vegan meals was a front and that the leadership had other plans.
Efforts to get documentation about the domestic terrorism class have so
far not succeeded. Food Not Bombs was only active in three cities in
November 1988.
