It was reported that this incident occurred while James was living on the streets in acute psychosis. We all pitched in demanding he receive care, not incarceration. Now he’s free, but the state released him back on the streets without anything but a bus ticket. As our MH First team continues to support James, we’re seeing just how the state sets up people like James to fail. He deserves love, care, safety, and healing.
Given the resources needed to make sure James gets what he needs and deserves, we have increased our goal to $20,000.
Please continue to share and/or donate to his community care fund today to help James Ramsey get back on his feet.
Donate Today
We have raised $11,561 so far! We’re funding temporary housing, food, clothes, and support to help him get stabilized because the state released him back on the streets with nothing. Please share and pitch in whatever you can!
In solidarity,
APTP

The Occupy Oakland General Assembly meets every Sunday at 4 PM at Oscar Grant Plaza amphitheater at 14th Street & Broadway near the steps of City Hall. If for some reason the amphitheater is being used otherwise and/or OGP itself is inaccessible, we will meet at Kaiser Park, right next to the statues, on 19th St. between San Pablo and Telegraph. If it is raining (as in RAINING, not just misting) at 4:00 PM we meet in the basement of the Omni Collective, 4799 Shattuck Ave., Oakland. (Note: we tend to meet at 3:00 PM during the cooler months from November to early March after Daylights Savings Time.)
On every ‘last Sunday’ we meet a little earlier at 3 PM to have a community potluck to which all are welcome.
OO General Assembly has met on a continuous basis for over six years, since October 2011! Our General Assembly is a participatory gathering of Oakland community members and beyond, where everyone who shows up is treated equally. Our Assembly and the process we have collectively cultivated strives to reach agreement while building community.
At the GA committees, caucuses, and loosely associated groups whose representatives come voluntarily report on past and future actions, with discussion. We encourage everyone participating in the Occupy Oakland GA to be part of at least one associated group, but it is by no means a requirement. If you like, just come and hear all the organizing being done! Occupy Oakland encourages political activity that is decentralized and welcomes diverse voices and actions into the movement.

Public Service Loan Forgiveness is a broken promise. On Oct. 6, 2021, the Biden administration announced a limited waiver intended to finally fulfill the promise of loan cancellation for millions of public servants. So far over 100,000 have gotten their debt cancelled because of the PSLF waiver, but many others are encountering problems.
The Debt Collective is co-hosting a webinar with the Student Borrower Protection Center that will focus on how to troubleshoot those problems.
6 p.m. ET Monday, March 21: Troubleshooting the PSLF Waiver
We will cover some of the unwritten rules about how to fill out the form that might trip up or delay the process, how to tell if a message you have gotten is false or misleading, and what steps to take if you think there is a problem. Our goal is to make sure that everyone gets the cancellation they were promised.
It’s time to roll up our sleeves and get into the game planning for the April 4th Day of Action to “PICK UP THE PEN, JOE.” We are calling on all members, allies, organizers and enthusiasts to join our mass campaign calls to get the plan in place for:
- Getting buses organized from your city
- Hosting local debtors’ assemblies
- Getting as many people as possible to show up in D.C.
We will hold calls from 7:30-8:30PM ET on February 22, March 8 and March 22.

This 5-part course is designed for anyone interested in studying technology and data as the new frontier in organizing against the systems of enforcement and criminalization that harm our communities.
Three years since beginning our monumental #NoTechForICE campaign, we’re launching this course to share resources we’ve developed and to create a digital space for deepening our collective understanding of the ever-expanding state of surveillance––and how to organize against it.
By signing up for this course, you will hear from organizers, professors, and movement leaders who contribute towards this powerful movement for a surveillance-free future. Lessons will cover: data colonialism, race and policing, immigration enforcement, border militarization, global migration, organizing tools, and more.
Alongside key speakers, you will engage with selected readings, reflection questions, and meet other people thinking through these issues of 21st century technologies in their own communities. Join us every two weeks for one hour as we learn together and continue to build a path that centers communities targeted by the detention and deportation machinery, policing, and military operations.
We know that left unchecked, we will be facing down a new world order designed and controlled by big tech and enabled by the government.
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH US!
Session Dates
Live sessions will take place biweekly on Wednesdays for one hour at 3pm PST/5PM CST/6pm EST. Lesson materials and content for each lesson will be unlocked prior to the live session.

AFSC and Council on American-Islamic Relations – SF Bay Area invite you to a virtual training event
Are police and sheriffs in your community allowed to tear gas children or protesters? To send the SWAT team to serve a drug warrant? What militarized equipment does your local police or sheriff have? When are they allowed to use it and against whom?
A new state law gives Californians a new window of opportunity to influence what militarized equipment local police agencies use.
Join our March 31 Zoom training to find out how. You’ll learn:
- What is AB481? How does it apply to my community?
- How do I find the relevant policy and hearing date for my city or county?
- What are effective talking points for speaking up?
You can also use our AB 481 Advocacy Toolkit.
Register here for our 45-minute training session, Advocate for your community: AB481, militarized police, and you.
While Oakland and Berkeley have local ordinances on military equipment used by police, sheriff and police departments across the state, they are now required to comply with similar state legislation, AB 481, and will submit policies to city councils and county supervisors within the next five weeks.
Please consider joining us and spreading the word.

Because of the COVID pandemic we will be meeting virtually via Zoom on the first Monday of the month.
Meeting ID: 828 0976 4186
The Oscar Grant Committee Against Police Brutality & State Repression (OGC) is a
grassroots democratic organization that was formed as a conscious united front for justice against police brutality. The OGC is involved in the struggle for police accountability and is committed to stopping police brutality.
In alliance with the International Longshore & Warehouse Union (ILWU) we organized the October 23, 2010 labor and community rally for Justice for Oscar Grant. On that day the ILWU shut down the Bay Area ports in solidarity. Our mission is to educate, organize and mobilize people against police and state repression. Sisters and brothers! The Oscar Grant Committee invites you to join us in this vital struggle.
We meet on the 1st Monday of each month

OTU’s Mission
The Oakland Tenants Union is an organization of housing activists dedicated to protecting tenant rights and interests. OTU does this by working directly with tenants in their struggle with landlords, impacting legislation and public policy about housing, community education, and working with other organizations committed to furthering renters’ rights. The Oakland Tenants Union is open to anyone who shares our core values and who believes that tenants themselves have the primary responsibility to work on their own behalf.
Monthly Meetings
The Oakland Tenants Union meets regularly at 7:00 pm on the second Monday evening of each month. Our monthly meetings are held in the Community Room of the Madison Park Apartments, 100 – 9th Street (at Oak Street, across from the Lake Merritt BART Station). To enter, gently knock on the window of the room to the right of the main entrance to the building. At the meetings, first we focus on general issues affecting renters city-wide and then second we offer advice to renters regarding their individual concerns.
If you have an issue, a question, or need advice about a tenant/landlord issue, please call us at (510) 704-5276. Leave a message with your name and phone number and someone will get back to you.
Please email contact@oaklandprivacy.org a few days before the meeting to get up-to-date location information or obtain Zoom meeting access info.
Join Oakland Privacy to organize against the surveillance state, police militarization and ICE, and to advocate for surveillance regulation around the Bay and nationwide.
We fight against spy drones, facial recognition, tracking equipment, police body camera secrecy, anti-transparency laws and requirements for “backdoors” to cellphones; we oppose “pre-crime” and “thought-crime,” — to list just a few invasions of our privacy by all levels of Government, and attempts to hide what government officials, employees and agencies are doing.
We draft and push for privacy legislation for City Councils, at the County level, and in Sacramento. We advocate in op-eds and in the streets. We stand in solidarity with Black Lives Matter and believe no one is illegal.
Check out some of what we worked on in 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019.
Oakland Privacy originally came together in 2013 to fight against the Domain Awareness Center, Oakland’s citywide networked mass surveillance hub. OP was instrumental in stopping the DAC from becoming a city-wide spying network. We helped fight and helped win the fight against Urban Shield.
Our major projects currently include local legislation to regulate state surveillance (we got the strongest surveillance regulation ordinance in the country passed in Oakland!), supporting and opposing state legislation as appropriate, battling mass surveillance in the form of facial recognition and other analytics, mass aerial surveillance, ubiquitous license plate readers, and pushing back against ICE.
On September 12th, 2019 we were presented with a Barlow Award by the Electronic Frontier Foundation for our work, and on March 16th, 2021 s James Madison Freedom of Information Award by the Northern California Society of Professional Journalists.

“WATCHING YOU WATCHING US”
Oakland Privacy works regionally to defend the right to privacy and enhance public transparency and oversight regarding the use of surveillance techniques and equipment. Oakland Privacy drove the passage of surveillance regulation and transparency ordinances in Oakland and Berkeley and is kicking off new processes in various municipalities around the Bay. To help slow down the encroaching police and surveillance state all over the Bay Area, join us at the Omni.
New Member Orientation!
Get involved with community-based police accountability and the struggle for justice! Copwatch will be hosting a new volunteer orientation (with snacks) where we will have info sessions on copwatching shifts, Know Your Rights trainings, creative projects, casework, and our police incident database.
This even will be held outside, socially distanced with masks.
Accessibility: The location is at ground level, in a grassy area.
