First – we need you to show up to support our unhoused nneighbors in West Oakland who are being displaced starting next Monday, April 10! We got word last week that unfortunately the City of Oakland will be moving forward with evicting the last remaining residents of the Wood Street community in West Oakland. They claim to be clearing this lot to build “affordable” housing, but the reality is no one who is currently living there will be able to afford the proposed housing. The expansive Wood Street settlement at … Continued

WE NEED YOU to keep us winning, to secure our Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) for E12th which will be voted at Oakland City Council’s CED meeting.

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.
