Stephanie Grant, wife of Jose Paulino, would like to have a balloon release to mark his 2 year Angelversary.

Jose was killed in 2014 in Tamaqua, PA by police who tazered him to death. Stephanie is newer to the Bay Area and would like Jose to be remembered by us here.

Purple was Jose’s favorite color, please bring a purple balloon, wear purple, or anything else to remember him by.

We’ve got the balloons..and cake too. Really hope you can make it.

Stephanie was also a witness to the police murder of Luis Gongora earlier this year. She’s has been through so much..

Please help us remember Jose and offer support and love to Stephanie this Friday ♥

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.
