This summer, we’ve seen a mass uprising for racial justice. Millions of people have taken to the streets and shut down their workplaces to declare that Black Lives Matter, to demand an end to racist police brutality. Protesters are calling on local governments to defund police and to invest in public services and good jobs for Black and brown communities.
Join former Richmond City Council member and candidate for AC Transit Board Jovanka Beckles, candidate for Oakland City Council Carroll Fife, Berkeley City Councilmember Cheryl Davila, and Richmond City Councilmember Melvin Willis for a conversation on how local governments can fight systemic racism. Moderated by Ashley Payne, an active member of SEIU Local 1021 and East Bay DSA.
