No Coal in Oakland

On December 7, Phil Tagami filed suit against the City of Oakland seeking to overturn the City of Oakland’s ban on storage and handling of coal at the new shipping terminal to be built on public land near the foot of the Bay Bridge. Come learn about the lawsuit and share ideas on the role community activists can play in defeating Phil Tagami in the current phase of the struggle.

No Coal in Oakland and allies have vowed to support the City in its fight to keep coal out of Oakland. NCIO meets regularly to plan actions that will strengthen Oakland’s resistance to coal. Only through continued mobilization and a strong alliance with our neighbors in the labor, faith, environmental, social justice, climate justice, racial justice, public health, and business communities can we ensure defeat of the plan to build the coal terminal.
