Generation of Oakland – The People's Portrait, Saturday, November 7th 11am-3pm @ East Oakland Youth Development Center 8200 International Blvd.

Oakland is changing, People whose families go way back are being pushed out by high rents and gentrification. In these difficult times, generations are being scattered in the name of development. But the generations of Oakland have memories and a history that speak to their determination and boundless creativity. Participants of the Generation of Oakland Project will get to star in a photo shoot and have their stories about growing up in Oakland recorded. You make Oakland! Your voice deserves to be heard and preserved! If you are an Oakland resident and want to participate, contact 1stloveart@gmail.com or 510.388.4022 www.niamimara.com
