Planning for Refinery Closures that Benefit Workers, Communities, and the Environment @ Online
Valero Refinery, Benicia In the Bay Area, the Valero refinery in Benecia has announced that it’s going to close in 2026 — and other refineries seem to be on the brink. Refineries pollute local communities and add to the climate crisis. But closing them suddenly leaves their workers without jobs, their communities without a major source of tax revenue — and their toxic legacy in the environment. Join The Climate Center in a webinar on Planning for Refinery Closures that Benefit Workers, Communities, and the Environment. Speakers Connie Cho, Asian Pacific Environmental Network … Continued

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.
