Council Says NO to Voters Who Want to Weigh in on a Billion Dollars of Public Spending for A’s

By Ken Epstein

In a meeting this week that dragged on for more than 12 hours, Oakland City Councilmembers decisively turned down a proposal to place a measure on the November ballot to allow voters to weigh in on whether they want over a billion of their tax dollars spent on infrastructure for private luxury development and a baseball stadium on public land at the Port of Oakland.

The final vote was 5-2 against the measure, with Councilmember Rebecca Kaplan abstaining.

Voting yes was Councilmember Noel Gallo, the author of the measure. Gallo emphasized that this proposal had not been his idea but was drafted in response to a deluge of calls and petitions from local residents, demanding that their voices not be ignored in the city’s rush to give public funds for infrastructure to billionaire developer and A’s team owner John Fisher.

Barbara Lee’s Fourth of July Remarks

Rep. Barbara Lee

On July 4th, we celebrated 246 years since our nation gained independence. And on this holiday, I’m mindful of what freedom really means to many Americans.

Independence and liberty for all were not achieved in 1776. Instead, it’s taking centuries to realize true freedom — for Black peoContinued on Page 8

“Your neighbors, my neighbors, are asking us to put this on the ballot,” Gallo said, addNoel Gallo ing that this is a business deal, and the A’s corporation has been less than transparent about the terms of the deal,

whether the A’s will pay any community benefits and how much infrastructure will cost the public.

“As of today, I don’t have a complete picture of what the A’s are asking for and what they are willing to pay,” Gallo said.

Also voting in favor of the resolution was Councilmem-

OUSD Receives $120,000 Grant to Bring Black Educators to Classrooms Special to The Post

The Oakland Unified School District wants many more young adults to come to Oakland to be teachers, and recently, OUSD received a major grant to bolster that effort.

The Oakland Teacher Residency (OTR) program received $120,000 from the National Center for Teacher Residencies (NCTR) to expand efforts to recruit and develop Black educators for OUSD schools.

The grant will allow OTR to provide an additional $10,000 for 10 Oakland Teacher Residents to reduce the financial barriers to entering the profession and becoming credentialed teachers. The grant will also support professional development through mentoring for Black Oakland Teacher Residents and first-year teachers.

The award comes through NCTR’s Black Educators Initiative (BEI), a five-year,

OUSD launched OTR in 2019 as part of a districtwide Grow Our Own strategy to recruit and retain staff who are reflective of Oakland’s rich diversity in the district’s Strategic Initiative #4.

Over the past three years, the program has grown from supporting eight student teachers to supporting a total of 46 teachers pursuing credentials in math, science, and special education. Of the 46 Oakland Teacher Residents, 67% identify as Black, Indigenous, Peo-

If you were celebrating on the Fourth, you have to be troubled on the fifth, sixth, seventh, and all the rest of our days.

This past weekend, some of our fellow Americans were flinching from gunpowder blasts. And it’s not from the fireworks.

It’s from guns. And it’s a reminder that our freedoms just don’t seem to be working right now for all of us in America.

We may have to think seriously about giving up some

rights for the greater good.

It surely can’t go on much longer the way it is.

Not when seven are dead and more than 30 are injured when a gunman shot up a Fourth of July parade in Highland Park, Illinois.

Not when the police chief of Akron, Ohio finally released officers’ body camera videos of the Jayland Walker killing on Sunday, nearly a week after Akron cops put more than 60 gunshot wounds into an unarmed Walker.

The Sunday release of the body cam footage and the

NAACP protest that occurred over the holiday in Akron would have led the national news most weekends.

But not when you have a live shooting at a Fourth of July parade in a Chicago suburb considered one of the safest places in America.

If you don’t know Highland Park (population 30,177), it’s to Chicago what the Lamorinda area is to Oakland. Affluent ($147,067 plus median income), 80-90% white. As a “white flight” suburb, mass shootings aren’t supposed to happen there.

So when it does, the media get super-focused on Highland Park.

Roe v Wade – Considerations for the Black Community

By Lorna Kendrick, PhD

This article is dedicated to all women and their loved ones who have suffered silently because of biases towards female reproductive choice. As we as a community ponder Roe v Wade, we must pause and consider this is not simply about abortion. This is about human rights not politics or societal dogmatism, equity for those most vulnerable and at risk, and freedom for all, not just for an elitist few.

During my doctoral education in the early 1990’s the buzzword or answer to achieving health equity for Black America was “access” to care.

Data showed, with access we could change the poorer outcomes we were seeing in our

communities. As a woman and as a researcher who has dedicated my entire career to improving care for all, in particular my community, I am beyond outraged when I think about the decision to overturn Roe v Wade, a decision never steeped in data only personal beliefs and opinion. Frederick Douglass once said, “I expose slavery to this country, because to expose it is to kill it.” I hope my words on this page expose this new form of slavery, hatred, and destruction of our community, through the overturning of laws and redistricting of voting lines, helps support efforts to “kill it”.

I am outraged. There are groups and individuals deterContinued on Page 8

By Post Staff

WNBA champion Brittney Griner entered a guilty plea for possession of hashish oil cartridges on Thursday as part of what some legal experts assert is a strategy for a lighter sentence.

Accused of large-scale drug transportation, she has been detained since Feb. 17, 2022. She was in possession of .07 grams of hashish oil. The charges carry a 10-year sentence.

“I’d like to plead guilty, your honor. But there was no intent.

I didn’t want to break the law,” Griner said on the second day of her trial, according to Re-

uters.

Her guilty plea came one day after Pres. Joe Biden and Vice Pres. Kamala Harris spoke to Griner’s wife, Cherelle Griner, who had complained that the president had not been in touch with her or other members of the basketball star’s family.

She revealed the contents of a hand-written letter Brittney wrote to the president on national news networks on July 4. “(As) I sit here in a Russian prison, alone with my thoughts and without the protection of my wife, family, friends, Olympic jersey, or any accomContinued on Page 8

Gov. Signs $308 Billion Budget: Californians to Get “Inflation Relief” Checks of Up to $1050

By Edward Henderson, California Black Media

Around 23 million California residents will receive “inflation relief” checks of up to $1,050 soon. The aid is included in the new budget deal reached by state lawmakers and Gov. Gavin Newsom on Sunday, June 26, 2022.

“California’s budget addresses the state’s most pressing needs and prioritizes getting dollars back into the pockets of millions of Californians who are grappling with global inflation and rising prices of everything from gas to groceries,” said Newsom in a statement.

The checks are designed as tax refunds and will come from the state’s robust $97 billion budget surplus. The total state budget for the next fiscal year (2022-2023) is $308 billion.

The relief payments are based on income, tax-filing status and household size – similar to the stimulus checks sent to Americans by the federal government during the pandemic.

Single taxpayers who earn less than $75,000 a year and couples who file jointly and make less than $150,000 a year will receive $350 per taxpayer.

Those with dependents will receive an additional $350 per child. For example, a couple that earns under $125,000 and has two children qualify for $350 per adult plus $350 for each additional child, up to a total check of $1,050.

Higher income Californians will receive smaller payments.

Single taxpayers who make between $75,000 and $125,000 a year and couples who earn between $150,000 and $250,000 will receive $250, plus the same payment for each dependent, up to a maximum of $750

All Roads Lead South, the Underground Railroad to Mexico

By Tamara Shiloh

Gov. Gavin Newsom cited the hardship of inflation and high gas prices as factors in providing the relief, which will reach Californians sometime in the fall.

per family.

Single people who earn between $125,000 and $250,000 and couples who earn between $250,000 and $500,000 annually would receive $200 each, plus the same amount for their dependents.

The maximum payment couples in that salary range will receive is $600 per family. Couples who earn above $500,000 and single taxpayers who earn above $250,000 aren’t eligible for the payments.

Checks will be sent via direct deposit or debit cards by late October.

“In the face of growing economic uncertainty, this budget invests in California’s values while further filling the state’s budget reserves and building in triggers for future state spending to ensure budget stability for years to come,” Newsom said.

“In addition, California is doubling down in our response to the climate crisis – securing additional power-generating capacity for the summer, accel-

erating our clean energy future, expanding our ability to prepare for and respond to severe wildfires, extreme heat, and the continuing drought conditions that lie ahead.”

Other hot button issues addressed in the finalized budget include a $47 billion, multiyear infrastructure and transportation package, $200 million in additional funding for reproductive health care services, and funding for education, universal preschool, children’s mental health and free school meals.

Not everyone was excited about the final negotiated version of the budget. Republicans complained about the limited time they were given to review the package for input.

“Where is the information?” Sen. Jim Nielson (R-Yuba City) asked during the Senate Budget and Fiscal Review Committee’s brief hearing on Monday. “What are you afraid of?”

Gov. Newsom signed the budget into law on June 30.

Among the many buried stories about Blacks in America is that of the Underground Railroad to Mexico. According to history scholars, it is likely that “more enslaved Black people escaped to Mexico than originally thought.” It’s known that some enslaved Blacks in Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Alabama escaped slavery by heading south, but the exact numbers had not been recorded.

Research has uncovered that between 4,000 and 10,000 enslaved Blacks may have “taken the trek south,” according to Alice Baumgartner, assistant professor of history at the University of Southern California.

“That’s small compared to the Underground Railroad of the North where 30,000 to more than 100,000 may have braved that more famous journey,” she writes.

Historians are now researching Spanish-language material documenting information on the arrival of enslaved people as well as clues as to what happened to those who escaped.

Archives of ads seeking escaped slaves and narratives of formerly enslaved people show that fleeing to Mexico may have been one of the events that lead to the Civil War. The enslaved left farms and headed south along “loosely organized paths.” Assisting them were poor Mexican Americans, German immigrants and abolitionists who “hid them in places from East Texas to isolated

regions approaching the Rio Grande,” Baumgartner writes.

According to researcher Maria Hammack, there is evidence that Mexicans in Texas acted as conductors, helping people get to Mexico.

Mexico abolished slavery in 1829 when Texas was still part of the country, a move spurring slave-holding immigrants to fight for independence in the Texas Revolution. Once the Republic of Texas was formed (1836), slavery was made legal again. Slavery remained when Texas joined the U.S. as a state in 1845.

Unlike the northern free states, Mexico would not return people who had fled slavery.

Once across the border, Blacks were able to experience true freedom without fear. This only angered Texas slaveholders, who organized groups to reclaim their so-called property.

Ignoring the fact that slavery was outlawed in Mexico, white-led mobs began to invade the country only to meet resistance. Tension began to rise; violence erupted. Blacks, Mexican citizens, and the Black Seminoles who resettled

in northern Mexico would band together and fight back.

Baumgartner said that she was “shocked at how many documents (she) came across that had to do with kidnappers from the United States arriving to try to kidnap enslaved people who had escaped to Mexico.”

Relationships created in Mexico spurred many Blacks to cross the border after the Civil War. “This is a very important part of American history, and we are constantly on unearthing new information,” said Roseann Bacha-Garza, program manager for the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley’s Community Historical Archaeology Project with Schools in Edinburg, Texas. She was among those who participated in a documentary examining the Underground Railroad to Mexico.

California-Hawaii NAACP Legacy Awards Bill Calling for Targeted Funding for LowHonors U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters Performing Black Students Moves Forward

By Charlene Muhammad California Black Media

The NAACP California/Hawaii Conference inducted Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA-43) into its Legacy Hall of Fame.

The award recognizes the congresswoman’s community leadership and tireless advancement of civil rights, according to state leaders of the country’s oldest civil rights organization.

Waters received the honor at the California African American Museum (CAAM) in South Los Angeles on June 25.

In Congress, Waters has made history.

She is the first woman and first African American chair of the powerful House Financial Services Committee, said Roderick Wright, former California state senator, as he introduced Waters. Wright represented the 25th and 35th districts in the Los Angeles County area.

Waters also serves as a member of the Steering Committee and is co-chair of the bipartisan Congressional Task Force on Alzheimer’s a member of the Progressive Caucus, and member and past chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, Wright pointed out, before California/ Hawaii NAACP President Rick Callender, escorted Waters to the stage.

“Our democracy is at stake,” said Waters, who highlighted problems like inflation, threats to the U.S. Constitution, and the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol attack.

She also thanked all involved in presenting her the award and participating in the program.

An outspoken critic of President Donald Trump, Waters’ adversarial relationship with the former president was widely reported in the media.

“Lock him up,” she chimed, blasting the former POTUS. “We have people talking about: Come up with something so he can’t run for president. Well, that’s not strong enough,” said Waters. “What’s strong enough is to say he should be held accountable.”

At points in Waters’ speech, the audience affirmed her remarks with nods, ‘yesses,’ ‘hmm mms’ and applause.

Waters highlighted her history of fighting for people often considered “the least of these,” making a biblical reference -such as people living in public housing, she said.

She lifted up her 97-year-old friend and author of “To Protect and Serve: The Volunteer World of Ozie Bell Gonzaque,” who has lived in Watts for most of her life. Citing Gonzaque’s life example, she encouraged others to fight for things they believe in.

“She’s been doing it and still doing it,” said Waters.

The congresswoman then turned her remarks to politics and policymaking, as she outlined programs and legislation she is working on in Wash., D.C., to make life better for her constituents in Los Angeles and

people around the country.

One of those is the Build Back Better Act, she said.

It is a continuation of the CARES Act and the American Rescue Plan, she said, appealing to the audience to make calls and use their social media platforms to push the legislation through.

That will help get families a decent quality of life, the homeless off the street, and repair of broken-down housing projects, Waters told guests.

Part of the effort with Build Back Better is to put more money into affordable housing, she explained. “Are you with me? … Can we do this?” she asked listeners.

“Yes!” the audience rang out.

Rep. Waters concluded her thank you message by noting she and her colleagues accomplish so much because of the support and backing of the NAACP. “Walking the halls of Congress, the NAACP is with us, writing, answering what is going on with the right-wing conservatives on the radio, in the newspapers. We could not begin to deal with all of the difficulties that we deal with, without the civil rights movement standing behind us, and there is none more effective than the NAACP,” she said.

The event featured a welcome reception for sponsors, dinner, and NAACP’s ACT-SO Performances.

“It was a wonderful event. I enjoyed Congresswoman Maxine Waters. She is such a ball of fire. She is on fire! I was inspired. I am just ready to take the streets, take off running and do all that needs to be done,” said Wendy Reed, community liaison for the Carson/Torrance branch of the NAACP.

A bill that would generate over $400 million for an estimated 785 public school districts across the state to provide critically needed academic support for Black students is on its way to the California Senate Committee on Appropriations.

Authored by Akilah Weber (D-San Diego), Assembly Bill (AB) 2774, passed out of the Senate Education Committee with a 7-0 vote on June 30, the last day before the Legislature’s summer recess.

“Thank you, CA State Senate Education Committee, for passing my bills,” Weber said via her Twitter account. “Our shared goals are to keep our students safe, provide opportunities for each of them to excel academically, and receive the support they need to stay in school and graduate.”

Weber introduced AB 2774 in February. The bill is co-authored by Assemblymember Chris Holden (D-Pasadena), chair of the Assembly Appropriations Committee. Both are members of the California Legislative Black Caucus.

Before the Senate Education Committee vote, many supporters of the bill from around the state rallied in front of “the Swing Space” – temporary legislative offices while the Capitol is under renovation -to urge Gov. Gavin Newsom to sign the bill. The building is located one block south of the State Capitol.

The discrepancies in achievement for Black students prompted a call for extra funding for them.

trict Board of Education, and students from Fresno, Sacramento, and Elk Grove made an appearance.

In addition, Sacramento County Democratic Party Chairperson Tracie Stafford, Chache Wright from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People of San Bernardino, and Sacramento County Board of Education trustees Al Brown and Bina Lefkovitiz joined the supporters of AB 2774.

“There is an undeniable achievement gap when it comes to Black children and we cannot continue failing them,” Moore said. “Our students want to do better; they want to be held to a higher standard, but they need our focus and effort to get them there. AB 2774 would push for sustainable, equitable, and academic growth.”

AB 2774 addresses equity issues with the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), which was created to provide additional funding for the highest need students in California.

AB 2774 would amend the definition of “unduplicated

pupils” for the 2023–24 fiscal year to include pupils who are included in the lowestperforming “subgroup or subgroups,” as defined in the language.

The subgroups identified as unduplicated pupils receiving supplemental funding include English Language learners, low-income students, and foster/homeless youth.

The adjustment is based on the most recently available mathematics or language arts results on the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress, as specified.

“I want to specifically call on the governor to support AB 2774,” Fortune said. “Everybody would agree that there is a crisis that 67% of Black kids can’t read at grade level in our public schools. Now it’s time for (Gov. Gavin Newsom) to stand in front of this issue. This group of students deserves support.”

The LCFF was enacted in 2013. Weber said over oneContinued on page 7

BAIFA Toll Facilities and Zones

Section 4. Timing.

4.1 The tolls and Penalties for Violations imposed by this ordinance shall apply to motorists entering a BAIFA toll facility zone from and after the date and time when BAIFA opens the BAIFA toll facility zone for use by the public as a toll facility, unless explicitly stated otherwise in Attachment A to this ordinance.

4.2 Subject to board approval at a duly noticed public meeting, BAIFA may carry out pilot projects on one or more toll facilities not to exceed 36 months in duration to test tolling and discount policies and new technologies that may deviate from the policies and technologies specified in this ordinance.

Section 5. Toll Tag or Pay-by-Plate Account Required.

5.1 Every motorist traveling in a BAIFA toll facility during its hours of operation is required to be in a vehicle with either (1) a properly-mounted and properlyfunctioning FasTrak® toll tag on board, or (2) valid vehicle license plates properly attached pursuant to Vehicle Code Section 4850.5 or 5200, and, in either case, being associated with a valid FasTrak® account having a balance sufficient to pay the applicable toll. Every motorist traveling in a BAIFA toll facility during its hours of operation is required to pay the applicable toll using that FasTrak® account.

5.2 To be “properly-mounted” means that, except as specified in Section 5.3, the FasTrak toll tag shall be located in or on the vehicle in a location so as to be accurately read by the FasTrak® system and be visible for the purposes of enforcement at all times while the vehicle is located in the BAIFA toll facility. ®

5.3 A motorcyclist shall use any one of the methods specified in Vehicle Code Section 23302(a)(3) to comply with the requirement to have a properlymounted FasTrak Flex® toll tag, as long as the FasTrak Flex® toll tag is able to be read by BAIFA’s detection equipment.

5.4 Every motorist entering a BAIFA toll facility during its hours of operation and having a FasTrak Flex® toll tag must use the toll tag to accurately declare the number of occupants in the vehicle or, if permitted under Section 7, accurately indicate toll-exempt or Discount status.

Section 6. Tolls.

6.1 Each motorist entering a BAIFA toll facility during its hours of operation who is not entitled to an exemption from tolls under Sections 7.1(B) through (F), inclusive, or Sections 7.4 or 7.5, shall be charged the then-applicable toll. The tolls charged by BAIFA are intended to manage the demand to use BAIFA toll facilities by varying the toll amount that is charged as established from time to time by the executive director of BAIFA. The amount charged may be determined pursuant to a methodology approved by the executive director of BAIFA, but the resulting tolls shall not be less than the minimum tolls set forth in Attachment A to this ordinance; provided, however, that the executive director of BAIFA may elect to reduce the minimum toll per zone during off-peak hours if the executive director determines, in consultation with Caltrans, that such reduction is necessary to alleviate traffic congestion in the non-tolled lanes. The current tolls upon entering a BAIFA toll facility zone or segment shall be displayed on BAIFA signs. BAIFA reserves the right to adjust tolls dynamically and in real-time. As such, the toll applicable to a motorist entering a BAIFA toll facility zone or segment is the toll displayed on the last BAIFA pricing sign before such motorist enters the zone or segment. Further, the total toll charged is determined based on the zones or segments of the BAIFA toll facility in which such motorist is detected. General information about tolls for BAIFA toll facilities is available online at the BAIFA toll facility website.

Barack, Michelle Obama Portraits on Display at de Young Museum in S.F.

By Clifford L. Williams

It’s awe-inspiring, riveting, inspirational, and very touching, to view the Obama Portraits Tour now on display at the de Young Museum in San Francisco. The installation is slated for public viewing through August 14, 2022.

The museum’s press release said, “From the moment of their unveiling at the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery in February 2018, the official portraits of President Barack Obama and Mrs. Michelle Obama became iconic.”

“The artists behind the portraits, Kehinde Wiley and Amy Sherald, have, throughout their careers, addressed the lack of Black representation in Western art history, using portraiture to explore complex issues of identity. Wiley and Sherald

In California, where more than 60% of all adults favor stronger gun laws, elected officials, activists and civil rights leaders have blasted the SCOTUS’ decision.

But not everyone agrees.

Micah Grant is Black, Republican, a father, husband and

Natomas School Board member in Sacramento County. He agrees with the SCOTUS’ decision on guns, arguing that the New York law had a built-in racial and class bias.

“I think it’s a fundamentally sound ruling that comes at, obviously, a very sensitive time,” Grant said. “But the laws as they were created two separate classes of people, where in many regions, only the connected and elite could exercise their fundamental right to protection.”

Grant says with crime on the rise in many cities across California, just going outside is “cause enough” to carry a gun.

“The state can simply implement reasonable training requirements to ensure those who apply for permits are knowledgeable, responsible, trained and that they understand the liability that comes with gun ownership,” Grant added.

representations of power. We are thrilled that Bay Area audiences will have the opportunity

to experience these powerful, iconic paintings in person.”

“Kehinde Wiley’s portrait of former President Barack Obama and Amy Sherald’s portrait of former First Lady Michelle Obama are groundbreaking American portraits that speak to the sense of hope and possibility that the Obamas inspire,” continued Campbell.

Wiley placed a seated President Obama—gazing forward to capture the viewer’s attention—against a backdrop of flowers with special significance in the life of the president and his family. Included are chrysanthemums as the official flower of Chicago; jas-

mine, which pays homage to the Obama’s birthplace and upbringing in Hawaii; and purple African lilies, which are native to Obama’s father’s birthplace, Kenya.

Sherald depicted the former first lady against a light-blue background in a contemplative pose. Her dress, by Milly designer Michelle Smith, carries meaning as well, as it refers to both the modernist traditions of abstract art and the traditional patterned quilts of the Gee’s Bend community in Alabama.

Public Works Committee Delays RV Parking Ban Vote Roe v Wade –

Considerations for the Black Community

By Zack Haber

During a June 28 meeting, Oakland’s Public Works Committee unanimously voted to postpone consideration of an ordinance that, if passed, would ban RVs and trailers from parking on the vast majority of public streets in the city.

“All we’re looking for here is to respect residents, their children and families, to make sure they have a clean, safe environment and a clean route to school,” said District 5 Councilmember Noel Gallo, who proposed the ordinance, during the meeting. “But we’re allowing people to park wherever they choose to and do whatever they do.”

With certain exceptions for commercial or governmental vehicles as well as some registered for disabled people to use, Gallo’s proposed ordinance would ban vehicles longer than 22 feet, taller than 7 feet, or wider than 7 feet, from parking on any street that is 40 feet in width or narrower. According to Oakland’s Department of Public Transportation, the ordinance would prevent such parking on about 79% of Oakland’s streets.

Just as when Gallo first

proposed the ordinance during a Public Works Committee meeting on March 22, he again faced pushback from local residents who felt it would criminalize and harm people experiencing homelessness and be ineffective at achieving its goals of creating cleaner, safer streets. During the June 28 meeting, 17 of 19 public speakers spoke out against the ordinance, while no one spoke in favor of it.

Timur Katsnelson, an intern with The East Bay Community Law Center, asked the committee to “consider what excessive fines and fees mean” to a person living in their vehicle who has it towed by the city. He cau-

tioned that such towing would likely cause people to lose their homes and “the last remnants of their lives.”

Several speakers pointed out that the ordinance does not come with any added services or offer people other places to park, as all city-sanctioned safe RV parking sites are already full.

“This is not public safety,” said Talya Husbands Hankin of the homeless advocacy group Love & Justice in The Streets.

“If the vast majority of streets become off limits to vehicle dwellers, where will people go?”

When Oakland’s Public Works Committee first con-

sidered Gallo’s proposal during the March 22 meeting, the other committee members, councilmembers Loren Taylor, Sheng Thao and Dan Kalb, requested Gallo include a supplemental report to address how his proposal compares to similar ordinances in other cities, what resources would be needed to implement it, what information can be gathered about RVs and RV owners in Oakland, and where RVs could be relocated. Three public speakers pointed out that Gallo included no such report when he reintroduced his proposal in the June 28 meeting.

Council Rejects Measure for Voters to Weigh in on A’s Continued from page 1

for,” Fife said.

She said supporters of the stadium project complain about misinformation being spread against the project. “(But) if we’re going to tell the truth, we’re going to have to tell the truth all the way around,” she said.

While it is true the stadium, luxury condominiums and commercial real estate will be privately paid for, “there’s a lot more that has to be funded,” she said, and it will be paid ultimately by taxpayers.

State, federal and other grants are also taxpayer money, much of which could be spent on other projects to benefit the needs of Oakland residents and neighborhoods, she said.

Fife said this issue will be on the November ballot, one way or another. Either the council could place it on the ballot, or voters may consider whether to vote for incumbents who opposed allowing the public to vote on the matter.

In a statement released after the meeting, the East Oakland Stadium Alliance said, “The City Council (has) denied Oakland residents the right to vote on whether to spend nearly $1 billion in public funds on the Howard Terminal project, ignoring the nearly 12,000 residents who signed petitions de-

manding a vote take place.

“With homelessness, a housing crisis, school closures, and rising crime impacting our city, Oakland voters must be allowed to weigh in before the City’s limited resources are spent on a private stadium and condo development.”

The five councilmembers who opposed the resolution gave a variety of reasons for their “no” vote, though most of them agreed they have heard overwhelmingly from residents who wanted them to vote “yes.”

Councilmember Dan Kalb said, “I’m not prepared to bring this issue to a vote of the citizens, until Dan Kalb the details of the final agreement are released.” If the deal looks good for Oakland, he said, he will vote in favor of it, but if Oakland’s finances ultimately are not protected, he might support a special election in January for voters to decide if they like the deal.

Councilmember and mayoral candidate Loren Taylor opposed the measure saying it was “confusing” and “stupid,” because it does not contain the details of the proposal.

“For me to be supportive, (the measure) would have to be

specific about the deal terms,” Taylor said.

None of the details have been released so far and Loren apparently are Taylor still being negotiated by city staff and the A’s,

Councilmember and mayoral candidate Sheng Thao said, “I’d like to hear an actual proposal.

Sheng I’m in the same Thao boat as Councilmember Kalb.”

Council President Nikki Fortunato Bas said, “I am not ready to put this on the Nikki ballot. We need Fortunato to actually have a Bas deal.”

Councilmember Treva Reid said voters in her district are “asking for more details before we ask them to Treva Reid weigh in. I’m going to wait for information.”

Many of the public speakers against the measure were aligned with the building trades construction unions, which have been working hard to pass the development proj-

ect.

A number of pro-development speakers addressed similar talking points, ending their remarks with the slogan, “This is bigger than baseball!”

Calling for a “no” vote, they argued: a ballot measure would be too costly to administer; details of a proposed deal were too confusing for Oakland residents to understand; and wording of the measure was too vague since it does not contain details of a final proposal.

Public speakers calling for a “yes” vote included Cathy Leonard. “I view this proposal as nothing more than a disguised development deal. Support Oakland residents’ right to vote.”

Andrea Luna Bocanegra said, “We have been fighting this for over six years,” adding that the development will hurt the companies that utilize the Port, forcing them to go elsewhere.

“It seems like we’ve stepped away from developing East Oakland,” said Stanley Cooper.

In response to the argument that there is no final deal, supporters of the ballot measure responded that the content of the deal is irrelevant. “The question is whether Oakland tax-payers want to use any of their tax dollars to pay for infrastructure for a private project. Period.”

The BEI funds will bolster ongoing recruitment and retention efforts of Black educators.

“It is critical for the District and for our students that we have more teachers who look like the young people in their classrooms,” said Superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammell. “So, it’s wonderful to see the early results of the Oakland Teacher Residency program, with a growing list of aspiring teachers with a profound commitment to Oakland and our students. This grant from the National Center for Teacher Residencies will enable us to bring in more young and enthusiastic educators who will add to the diverse fabric of our teaching corps, some of whom will no doubt be from Oakland. That’s exactly what our students deserve.”

Applications for the 2022-23 Oakland Teacher Residency program are now open. Math, science and special education Oakland Teacher Residents receive a $15,000 stipend to earn a credential while student teaching in an expert mentor teacher’s classroom.

There is also an affordable housing opportunity for Oakland Teacher Residents. After the one-year residency, teachers earn a teaching credential, secure a full-time teaching position, and make a four-year commitment to teach in Oakland.

offer prayer and solace for the two-time Olympic gold medalist who was there to play with the Russian Premier League during WNBA’s off season.

On learning of her guilty plea, Sharpton said “I still support Brittney Griner and pray that her plea of guilty is met w/ mercy and leniency. (National Action Network) and I will continue to campaign for her return home, our concern for her life and safety remains.”

WNBA Star Britney Griner Pleads Guilty to Drug Possession plishments, I’m terrified I might be here forever,” a portion of the 31-year-old’s letter read.

The prolonged silence from the U.S. government for much of her imprisonment raised questions in the African American community that perhaps the Black, gay woman was not important enough.

Rev. Al Sharpton had been advocating for a group of Americans to go to Russia to

mined to deny the rights and freedoms of others and force their beliefs on the populous of this nation. How did we become a nation where, if you believe something, I too must believe exactly as you? How can I support a nation where one of my loved ones was gang raped in the military and was forced (pre Roe v Wade) to have the child? A nation where she never received needed resources to support, nurture, or help her heal from the trauma. This healing did not happen, because it is just too taboo of a subject to acknowledge in our perfect society where she a woman of color is invisible and not as valued. Many of these women often live out their entire lives both reliving the trauma and navigating a life of poverty unable to provide for her child/children.

Sadly, a growing part of our society has demonized those seeking abortion in such a way, although legal, this choice continues to wreak havoc in the minds of women and others. Some in our society posit an inaccurate ideology where women are viewed as choosing abortion as if they were ordering a cup of coffee, with little to no mental or emotional struggle. As a nurse with years of experience and as a therapist and researcher in the area of mental wellness, I can emphatically say, women I have seen in my practice have struggled a lifetime with their decisions. Their mental and emotional wellbeing suffered because they were indoctrinated by our society to believe they were awful human beings for making this kind of decision. They bought into the belief that the most important part of being a woman was to bring life into the world and if they chose not to, they were the scum of the earth and doomed to eternal death.

Within the Black community, we have historically accepted the downtrodden and nurtured our own. Share your stories with your daughters and sons (dads too). Talk to them let them know you love them unconditionally. This does many things. First, it increases their self-worth and decreases the likelihood of unintentional pregnancy. This also increases the likelihood they will come to you if something happens. This also increases the likelihood they will not try to end an unintentional pregnancy on their own or through a backdoor illegal abortion, as did so many from my generation.

Prevention coupled with love and acceptance can be the saving grace of our powerful Black community. We know the strength of grassroots efforts. Let us begin to take control of our own future and stop waiting for society to help us turn the tide. This is a time for action, not silence.

Dr. Martha Taylor has invited guest Taylor contributors and experts to submit articles, opinions and advice for publication.

The Post News Group will publish articles that will discuss the fallout from the reversal of Roe v Wade.

people died in May. The Hispanic community suffered in Uvalde when 21 people were killed last month.

But then you have the kind of shooting that took Jayland Walker’s life.

Reports say Walker had a handgun on a seat in his car. It wasn’t loaded. And he didn’t use it. Walker was stopped by the Akron police during a routine traffic stop. He had one traffic ticket and no criminal record. So why did it take eight officers to stop him, ending in a seven-minute pursuit that left Walker dead?

At one point, Walker stopped, exited his car wearing a ski mask and fled on foot. Police used tasers at first, but when that didn’t stop Walker, the officers opened fire.

Akron Chief Stephen L. Mylett confirmed Walker was unarmed when confronted and told the lawyers for Walker that evidence he’d seen indicated the officers were not threatened.

The eight officers were placed on administrative leave. And this weekend hundreds protested in downtown Akron. We just didn’t see much coverage on it. It would have only reinforced what we know — that police violence, specifically toward the BIPOC community is real and keeps happening again and again.

Who knows if Jayland Walker and his family will ever see justice? We only know for sure that Walker won’t be the last Black man confronted by police violence.

That’s why we need to keep shining a light on Walker’s case, so that in a year people won’t wonder, “Jayland Who?” Emil Guillermo is a veteran journalist and commentator. See Tested for the presence of drugs in her system, Griner was clean, giving rise to speculation that her arrest at a Moscow airport one week before Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24 was politically motivated.

Diplomacy experts agree, asserting that Griner is considered a pawn in a test of wills between Russian Pres. Vladmir Putin and Western powers including

and especially the U.S. Possible next steps after her trial, which will last several more weeks, is the possibility of a prisoner swap where a Russian national detained in the U.S. will be traded for Griner’s release.
