Oakland, like many cities across the nation, is at a critical juncture.

And there is a choice to be made.

We can continue down a path of systemic inequity, economic decline, failing schools and the resulting hopelessness that permeates our communities or we can re-imagine a future where every citizen has the opportunity to not just survive – but to thrive.

Please join our panel for a community conversation about how we can come together to build an Oakland that is a model city for the nation.

Discussion topics include:
· Public safety
· A living wage for all
· Public Education
· Economic development

Panelists:

Dennis Kucinich, former mayor of Cleveland and member of Congress

Tom Hayden, former state senator

Maria Poblet, Oakland Rising Action

And more ...
