We are holding a followup to "Inside Urban Shield" based on the ideas that were thrown out and briefly discussed at that Community Forum.  Please come to get involved: organizing and acting to most effectively influence things locally, nationally and at the state level.

Just a few of the many ideas that were proposed:

  • Opposing the acquisition of the San Leandro tank with a demonstration.
  • Attending Bay Area UASI meetings.
  • Pushing for privacy legislation in Oakland.
  • Cutting off funding to police organizations that violate human rights.
  • Opposing California's Peace Officers' Bill of Rights.
  • Looking at Richmond and Salt Lake City models of policing
  • Using the series 'Overcriminalized." and the action kits that go with it.
  • Opposing pre-trial detention.
