The Oakland Education Association and allies rallied at three bank branches on January 13, 2011 to demand a bailout for public schools and services, not banks, and to stop home foreclosures. We chose the eve of the Martin Luther King, Jr., weekend to launch this campaign, becuase King pointed out that in order to address racism and poverty, there must be "a radical redistribution of political and economic power."
