Deep East Oakland Rising, a rally for Black lives, is set for Saturday, June 27 2020.
“For East Oakland Collective, this action is meant to make our community aware that to survive CODID-19 this virus must be respected and taken seriously.”
It’s important “to show East Oakland Black residents that we’re all in this together and to everyone else that Black East Oakland is still here and we’re not going out that easy,” Price said.
Oakland Front Line Healer Candice Elder and CEO of East Oakland Collective said “This is a march for everyone who can no longer be silent against racial injustices that plague our Black neighborhoods.
Oakland Frontline Healers recently sent a letter to the County Board of Supervisors by OFH representative and Roots Clinic Physician Noha Abolata regarding how Deep East Oakland will be impacted by the reopening of commerce, leisure and worship in Alameda County.
