Join the Movement for a Fair and Equitable Democracy

By flexing people power, aligning like-minded forces, and developing values-based leaders, we are dismantling systems of oppression and building a real Democracy that is inclusive of and led by the communities who have historically and systemically been left out of the political and policy decisions.

We envision an Oakland that realizes our shared dreams of health, happiness, safety and opportunity for all.  We believe we can erase the racial, economic, political, environmental and educational inequities that have created barriers between us, and find collective strength in our city's diversity. We know that Oakland can reach its full potential when residents of any neighborhood, students of any school, riders of any bus can help lead our city into the future. We believe that this vision is possible, and that we will achieve it one vote, one meeting, one march at a time.
