Did you see this video from The Working Group of the peaceful assembly after the Mehserle verdict on July 8 in Oakland?

This is a pretty accurate view of what really went on downtown earlier in the day as people gathered.

Again, this video shows the spirt of collaboration that characterizes much of the work in our city--J onathan Bernstein, NIOT's Executive Director, decided there should be a video and pulled together a small team--Executive Producer: Patrice O'Neill; Producer: Adrienne Calo; Cameras: Anthony Lucero and Adam Christy. Music was courtsey of  Turf Unity Music Project and  Youth Radio reporter Pendarvis Harshaw contributed material.

The Oakland Local Editorial Team is made up of Kwan Booth, Amy Gahran, Irene Florez, Michelle Fitzhugh-Craig, Eric Arnold, Jennifer Inez Ward, CB Smith-Dahl, Meg Bertoni, Susan Mernit, Tehea Robie, Ruth Miller, Debi Mason, and others.
