Pacific Renaissance Struggle...

Please join us in the Pacific Renaissance Struggle... a 4-Year Commemoration

Saturday, April 28th, 2007, 10:30am at Pacific Renaissance Plaza in Oakland Chinatown

(9th St. between Webster & Franklin) PLEASE NOTE DATE CHANGED!

Join us we commemorate the families who stood up for housing rights and as we recommit to realizing justice for the Pacific renaissance tenants and Oakland Chinatown. It's been four years since tenant families, community groups, and the City of Oakland sued the Pacific Renaissance developers. Last May, the parties entered into a tentative settlement agreement that would have resulted in preserving the 50 affordable housing units as permanently affordable housing for the Chinatown community. The Pacific Renaissance units represent the last remaining option for affordable housing in Chinatown -- a community that is experience a serious affordable housing crisis. With your continued help, we will write a different chapter of history on the treatment of Chinatown residents and realize justice for the Pacific Renaissance families.
