Shame on the Oakland City Council.Santa Clara County BLOCKED FLOCK. Oakland doubled down. Ignoring the community. Expanding surveillance.We demand real safety — not a citywide dragnet.
Feb 25
Supervisors in Santa Clara County voted 3-2 on Tuesday to disallow the use of Flock as a vendor for automated license plate readers and impose more conditions on the use of surveillance cameras. ktvu.com/news/santa-clara-co…

Amateur night at the Apollo
It actually is quite scandalous that the way Wang and Houston envision their leadership roles at Public Safety Committee is to run a PR op for OPD, helping to cover up mistakes and misleading claims. Watching their performance last night was startling, so amateurish and visible

I have to say, given the demographic of the Montclairians I've seen organizing, this does look like fury at "uppity" public servants. We will see if our council leadership, on the record as being protectors of Black public servants, will finally say enough to this.
Montclair is once again organizing against Black and Brown Police Commissioners, angry that two Commissioners they've relentlessly impugned and slandered have the constitutional, and Oakland Charter, right to speak publicly on their own views. Let's see what the Council does.

🚨 OPD BROKE THE LAW — AGAIN. 🚨 OPD illegally bought 3 brands of military-grade assault rifles without approval from the Police Commission or City Council — a direct violation of state law. Now they want 75 MORE rifles new drones armored vehicles. ktvu.com/news/opd-bought-ass…

This is who CM Jenkins, CM Wang, and CM Houston cater to and embolden. This blatantly racist, dehumanizing rhetoric has no place in Oakland. They’ve turned City Hall into a MAGA Oakland — where hate thrives, white supremacy hides behind “public safety,” and leaders stay silent.

I highly recommend people concerned about transparency in the current council absolutely attend and/or view rules committee meetings on video asap after they happen. They have tried to sneak more legislation and process past the public in the past two months than I've ever seen

Even I find level of cynicism hard to believe, but OPD/City Admin tried to reintroduce Flock Surveillance for Nov 4 special 9 am meeting following last Tuesday's last minute cancellation of Public Safety Com where dozens of opponents were ready to oppose. To credit, Rules said no
Replying to @Oak_Observer
Unbelievably, they are trying to put the OPD's surveillance plan directly to Tuesday. "we are asking it bypass committee"

Oakland: Say NO to FLOCK. Today, Oct 28, the Public Safety Cmte votes on a $2.25M FLOCK expansion—tech that shares data with ICE. FLOCK = mass surveillance, not safety. Oakland is a Sanctuary City, not a tracking zone. 📍 Rally 5PM | City Hall 🕕 Vote 6PM | Cmte Mtg

In response to the ICE invasion of the Bay, here are some tools in English and Spanish. One is what to do if facing an ICE raid, the other is what to do within the first 24 hrs if a loved one gets taken by ICE. #ProtectYourPeople

Another huge news story the corporate media is snoozing on. The Commission isn't some ancillary body, the hiring of a new police chief absolutely must go through this body because of charter language that was voted by a near majority of Oaklanders TWICE, in 2016 and in 2020
At Oakland Police Commission tonight, Shawana Booker, serving as acting Chair announced three members of OPC were not present. Williams, Farmer, Garcia Acosta, were "excused" meaning they alerted absence. Booker cited "conflict and serious safety concerns" for not meeting quorum.

APTP calls out Council President Kevin Jenkins and CM Ken Houston for undermining Oakland’s civilian police oversight—and now attacking Commissioners who held OPD accountable. We see you. So does Oakland.

Absolutely count on Oakland's city council to fail residents in this important moment. It's not at all a coincidence that they moved to vocally undermine police oversight the day before this happened---they care only about their own careers, not you. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti…

Crime and homicides are way down — with fewer officers on the street. The data is clear: we don’t need more cops, we need more resources in our communities. Safety comes from housing, healing, and care — not policing.
Oakland has almost half the homicides it had in 2023, a decline that began in mid-2024 and has steadily continued today. There is no way to undercount the murders by a substantive amount.

.@charlenewang is lying to defend mass surveillance and attack the City of Oakland’s Privacy Commissioners. The Commission didn’t block the community — it stopped a taxpayer-funded Flock surveillance grab. Undermining community oversight to serve police & developers is shameful.
This is CM Wang claiming at a private Chamber of Commerce event that Privacy Advisory Commission prevented a community from buying Flock w/their own funds, using the story to demonize Commissioners. It's false. Only tech owned/run and/or purchased by City needs PAC approval

After a significant public backlash that included every major arts organization, including the Oakland Symphony, Ramachandran's ill considered and perhaps personal deletion of the cultural affairs director will be reversed via budget amendment

Houston's statements and attitude are grounds for Council censure. I've seen this video about twenty times since yesterday in various places and there's no mainstream media coverage. The perks of being supported by police and landlords in this current political moment--no rules.
Ken Houston, the Oakland City Council member who sponsored a cruel homeless sweep policy, is now making videos reveling at the unhoused losing possessions and complaining about “people from Portland.” Does he think this makes him look good? #housing #homeless #homelesssweeps
