Riots all over the world are calling on us to get involved in societal change. But what kind of action is required and how do we create a sustained response? We feature a round-table discussion, featuring: musician Daz-I-Kue, educator and former president of Oakland’s School Board, Greg Hodge and Oakland’s Assistant City Administrator Fred Blackwell. They explore the root of political actions from London to Oakland, strategies for activism and their vision for a new community activism that reflects the needs of the African American communities.
Special thanks to Michael Orange, Top Ten Social Speaker Series and Oakland School of the Arts, Black Box Theatre.
