Night Out for Safety and Liberation

On Tuesday, August 2nd, the Ella Baker Center is hosting Night Out for Safety and Liberation (NOSL) in Oakland where we will build community and share what makes us feel safe in our neighborhoods. NOSL is a national event where people across the country will redefine and reimagine what public safety really means for our communities.

Join us on 8/2 and share what you need to feel safe.

Bring your picnic blanekts to our free event at Lowell Park in West Oakland; we will have music, an art build, healing practitioners, family activities, and dance and spoken word performances. Childcare and food will also be provided.

RSVP on Facebook.
NIGHT OUT FOR SAFETY AND LIBERATION
Turn up with us in West Oakland, home of the Black Panthers, to celebrate their 50th anniversary as we host our 4rd annual Night Out for Safety and Liberation on Tuesday, August 2nd—a national event where we redefine what safety means to us to start a different conversation about public safety beyond policing; focusing on how we can build equity, power, and opportunity in our communities!

There will be an art build, free food, healers, music, games, an open mic, and family activities. All are welcome and all are invited.

Let’s continue to build a narrative that defines safety not in terms of fear, crime, and punishment, but rather as a community that has access to affordable healthcare, housing, food, education, safe and working infrastructure, and more.
