EastSide Arts Alliance & Cultural Center, a Deeply Rooted Collaborative partner, and The House of Malico created this short video. The video highlights East Oakland’s Black community’s history and present, and reminds us that Oakland residents are Oakland. Residents built and continue to build the city. Oakland residents were interviewed at Deeply Rooted Collaborative engagement events at Akoma Market and the Malcolm X Jazz Arts Festival.
