City politicians plan to bring a federally-integrated surveillance center to Oakland, called the Domain Awareness Center. The soon-to-be implemented DAC aims to watch the entire city. This comes after a year of FBI-led raids on housing projects and more in west Oakland.

This is the first of multiple lead-up demonstrations for March 15th, International Day Against Police Brutality (more info here: https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2014/02/08/18750509.php )
