Diary of a Revolution is an exhibit that features 36 photos taken by Peskador & José Antonio Galloso. Presented in chronological order, the exhibit portrays a succinct and powerful document of the recent history of Oakland. However, Diary of a Revolution is also a constant search for the aesthetics of the movement, and for the limits between history and poetry, fact and fiction. Opening Party Friday 27 of July From 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. La Peña Cultural Center, 3105 Shattuck Ave., Berkeley, CA, 94705 –click here for directions– 36649

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.
