Black Friday Protest at Emeryville Mall

November 24, 2011 at 8:00 pm.

Stop the Desecration of Indigenous Land

Did you know that the Bay Street Mall is built upon a Sacred Ohlone shellmound burial ground? It is the oldest and largest burial ground in the bay area – older than the pyramids in Eygpt. In 2000, it was desecrated to make way for the mall. Join in the annual action to educate the public about this sacred site.

Bring snacks and signs as we ask holiday shoppers to boycott this mall to respect the original (and still present!) inhabitants of the Bay Area. Children and families are welcome.

About OccupyOakland.org

This website was created in the fall of 2011. Most of it is now moribund, but the Occupy Oakland Calendar, which lists activist events in the East Bay (and occasionally elsewhere) is still maintained, the Search facility works to find earlier posts and keep OO’s history alive, and articles are occasionally still posted to the front page.

The Occupy Oakland General Assembly met in-person weekly (with a rare skip) since October 10th, 2011 up until the pandemic, at which point we went to bi-weekly Zoom meetings. We do checkins, go over the activist events of the past meeting interval, and have general discussions on politics and revolution.

For many years, until the pandemic, we put on a Feed the People event monthly at Oscar Grant Plaza, where all were welcome to come and partake of a freshly cooked, savory meal, before our GA.

If you would like to participate while the pandemic is still amidst, send an email to occupyoakland-request@lists.riseup.net. Check the calendar or this text to see if we have resumed in-person meetings.
