OUSD To Hold Press Conference On Wednesday Night’s Board Meeting Disturbance - Video

OUSD To Hold Press Conference On Wednesday Night’s Board Meeting Disturbance Oakland, CA (Release) -- For the third session in a row, the OUSD Board of Education faced a protest on Wednesday night at its regularly scheduled meeting. The goal of the protest has been to shut down the meetings and stop the business of the District from being completed. Many of the same protestors shut down a City of Oakland - School Board joint committee meeting inside City Hall on Monday night. Last night’s meeting temporarily ended when protestors jumped over and pushed through a barrier that was set up to protect the Board and staff. The meeting restarted once the Board and staff could be relocated upstairs to the Committee Room. Six people were arrested, cited for disturbing the peace and disturbing a board meeting, and released. Today, the Board of Education, Superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammell and Oakland School Police Chief Jeff Godown will hold a press conference to discuss what happened and to implore the protestors to keep their demonstrations peaceful. WHAT: OUSD Board Meeting Disturbance Press Conference WHEN: 1:00 p.m., Thursday, October 24 WHERE: 1000 Broadway, Suite 300

Oakland Mayor's Race: LWV Forum Draws Oakland's Older Folks

Oakland Mayor's Race Forum first take. (Which means, there's going to be more of these posts on last night, because a lot was happening.) This just in: The Oakland Tribune's out of touch with Oakland. A number of attendees of the 450 estimated said they learned of the Oakland League Of Women Voters via "the newspaper." All of the people who made that statement were over 50 years old. Still, the forum, which attracted every candidate except Dr. Terrance Candell, was a success. The auditorium at 300 Lakeside Drive seats 380 people, so if you do the math, it was about 70 over capacity. The crowd was a happy mix of supporters of candidates and long-time observers of the Oakland political scene. The one complaint they had was there wasn't enough time to hear what the candidates were about. That wasn't because there were too many candidates, but due to the format.
