My friend, Oakland film maker Oriana Bolden, is both talented and brave. When I saw the footage she just posted of the Oakland Police in action at 14th and Broadway the night of the Mehsertle verdict--and the way she was right there even as the police suddenly declared everyone standing there to be part of "an unlawful assembly"--and the people she filmed who were there as the cops started closing in on the line- I thought it was   just the best news video ever. No war zone photog could do better.
