Welcome to Oakland Rising

Strategy & Community Building Meeting: Stop Flock Surveillance Join us for a grounding and collaborative space as we prepare for the upcoming Board of Supervisors vote on expanding Flock surveillance. This gathering is an opportunity to come together as organizers, advocates, and community members to build alignment, deepen relationships, and strengthen our collective strategy. We’ll share key updates, discuss strategy, and coordinate how we can show up in powerful and unified opposition before, on, and after April 21.  Whether you’ve been involved in this work or are just getting connected, you are welcome here. Your voice, experience, and presence matter. Together, we’ll root ourselves in our shared values and leave with concrete next steps to build support against Flock.
