Four weeks ago in Oakland, we joined #Asians4BlackLives Bay Area to confront EBALDC in-person at their offices regarding the partnership. We were met with open hostility from staff and pandering from Executive Director Joshua Simon. Instead of real dialogue, they’ve shown they are committed to enabling gentrification by partnering with a luxury developer.Today, Monday, February 29, the Special Community and Economic Development Committee of City Council will meet to hear presentations on each proposal and solicit public comment. This might be one of your last chances to have your voice heard by your council members. Can you join us this afternoon at 4:00 PM at City Hall?The #SaveE12th Coalition will be gathering on the steps of City Hall at 4 PM for the 4:30 PM meeting. Let’s show City Council we’re serious about public land for public good in Oakland. If you plan on joining us, feel free to send us a message and we’ll get in touch immediately to answer any questions you may have.
