May 8th: March for Custodian Wage Equity @ UCB
Custodians at UCSC need your support. After a very unproductive negotiation session with UC Administration last Friday, UC custodians are moving full steam ahead for a Commencement March for Custodian Wage Equity at UC Berkeley on Tuesday, May 8th. UC was given $8.5 million earmarked for custodians on 4 UC campuses, but the administration is only offering a fraction of that. We're aiming to fill a charter bus with workers, students and community members to demand they hand all of the money ov...

MayDay in Berkeley - Reclaim the Streets. (video/x-ms-wmv 48.1MB)
This is edited video of the 2003 May Day Reclaim the Streets walk through downtown Berkeley and the south-of-campus area. It has already been covered as photojournalism on indybay, and this primarily serves to add the soundtrack, and also helps convey the size of the large group of residents and students who joined in. It seemed appropriate to share as a flashback in time because lots of participants thought this was fun, and there was no damage done, and little conflict with traffic at this ...

West Oakland: 53 liquor stores, 0 grocery stores, detour commuters, & street art activism
Posters that sarcastically read, "Welcome Thru West Oakland -- Enjoy Our 53 Liquor Stores," appeared along West Grand Avenue shortly after Eastbound 580 and 24 traffic was re-routed through West Oakland this week. While street art in its many forms often stirs controversy, especially amongst those who prefer their surroundings tidy, it is very often the voice of the disenfranchised struggling to make themselves and the concerns of their community be heard. West Oakland is not a tidy bedroom...
