Seminary of the Street has had a presence at Occupied Oakland*/Decolonize Oakland since the very first planning meeting
and are supporting the movement with our bodies as well as our ideas. We participate with a spirit of curiosity and humility
and stand in awe of the energy, drive, and commitment of those who have been most involved and are working to support the
participation of those most impacted by the intersecting crises this movement seeks to address.
We will
use this page to let you know about 1) activities that we are coordinating or helping to coordinate at the sites of occupation,
and 2) various statements and reflections on the movement.
Many of us are attending events at Oscar
Grant plaza and associated marches in informal groups. You may want to join our Facebook group to keep up with those opportunities:
* We are using "Occupied" Oakland rather than the more common Occupy Oakland in deference to the fact that Oakland
was founded on occupied Ohlone land and has thus been occupied for some time.
