I cannot in good conscience be a good father without teaching my children compassion and to fight for what is right. There was no way I could celebrate while families are being cruelly torn apart. While searching for a way to make this day more meaningful, my friend Megan proposed the idea of the protest at the ICE detention center. Yes, it’s last minute and 100% grassroots, but I hope you will … Continued 4:00 pm Occupy Oakland General Assembly @ Oscar Grant Plaza Occupy Oakland General Assembly @ Oscar Grant Plaza Jun 17 @ 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm Tickets NOTE: During the Plague Year of 2020 GA will be held every week or two on Zoom.

This is an evil policy, a disgrace, that cannot be ignored. It is self-imposed by the Attorney General and the President. Family separation is not a law, it is simply a policy designed in the most cruel way to deter immigrants seeking asylum at our border.

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.
