March For Housing Now Confronts MacArthur Commons in Oakland
The East Bay Housing Justice Week of Action included Moms4Housing reclaiming a West Oakland home, demonstrations at Citibank and Wells Fargo on Broadway downtown, and housing rights banner hangs, among other actions. On November 23, a large March for Housing Now confronted the economic injustices represented by the new high-end MacArthur Commons housing complex.

The East Bay Housing Justice Week of Action was organized by ACCE Action and allies.
