I will never forget those in Oakland at the end of 2020- before vaccines, before proper PPE, before implementation of proper ventilation systems in our public schools- were *demanding* schools reopen. rich, white neoliberal hills people, against the concerns of flatlands POCs
See, back in 2020, Jennifer Sey was trying to reopen schools with a “half dozen other parents” just like Siva Raj was trying to reopen schools in Pleasanton while Autumn Looijen’s kids’ schools down in Los Altos were already open.

Oakland Observer friends, a moment of sincerity if I could: I have benefited so much from your support this past year. With your solidarity, subscriptions, and news tips, I've broken big stories & made a living wage as a journalist, the prized unicorn of indie news gathering
Today, a coalition of Oakland voters, people of faith, workers, artists, civil rights activists, young people, and elders came together to rally against the recall campaigns happening in Oakland, Alameda County & the state of California right now.

Our question to the School Board is simple: Are you going to stand by your own resolution and protect students from co-location? It's been months since the Board passed co-resolution, there is no reason our schools should have to pay the price for inaction.

We are deeply saddened and dismayed to learn of the recent vandalism of the menorah at Lake Merritt in Oakland. AROC stands in solidarity with our Jewish friends, family, members, and neighbors. (⅕)
regardless of any potential political motivation, folks should realize these types of actions are anti-Jewish & should be called out as such by all good people. if you do such acts you are *NOT* anti-Zionist or critical of Israel, you are anti-Semitic… *PUNTO*
Someone destroyed a menorah at Oakland’s Lake Merritt last night. The Jewish religious display was ripped down and thrown into the lake. Police are on scene and city workers just recovered the parts.
Despite Mr Lerma's dismissive attitude abt his significant campaign finance violations, the Oakland Ethics Commission is taking them very seriously. If we can't trust him to follow the laws that all candidates follow, how can we trust him to lead on the board? Vote @sasharitzie
The Oak Ethics Comm has officially opened an investigation into the Lerma @OUSDNews d5 Campaign for multiple violations, including using multiple bank accounts, inaccurate disclaimers on campaign communications, failure to timely file/file accurate reports & more. @Oaklandside
More campaign finance violations from OUSD candidate Jorge Lerma. Lerma sent a mailer to the entire district but didn’t disclose it in any of his pre-election filings (which he filed 3 weeks late). Voters deserve to know Lerma is being audited for his ethics violations!
.@OUSDNews District 5 candidate Lerma has been using an old campaign account to avoid disclosing to voters who is contributing to his campaign. That is against the law, and he should suspend his campaign now. #ousd #elections #followthemoney ousdparentsunited.com/2023/10/20/can…
Yesterday on @kpfaradio Mr Lerma claimed he was running a grassroots campaign with mostly small dollar blue class donors, but his campaign disclosures tell a different story. This is why disclosures matter. #followthemoney #ousd #voteNovember7
Wellstone‘s endorsed School Board candidate @sasharitzie is also the student’s choice!
The @OUSDNews student board members recapped the results of the Youth Candidate Forum at tonight's OUSD board meeting. The participant straw poll results: 68% of all students supported @sasharitzie for District 5 school board. #youthvote #ousd #Elections2023
Last night BOP held a community listening session in deep east Oakland. The theme was community safety and how we as a community define it— and more importantly how our vision for our community differs from the narrative that has reverberated throughout the city and media.
