District 12 training in Oakland was more exciting than we bargained for. While 1% were attending Bully-Busters, Arbitration and Merit Systems Protection Board training, another 98% were occupying the area around city hall. These current-event photos were taken in front of the hotel where we took our training, which is located on Broadway just four blocks from the then-occupied Frank Ogawa Plaza.
In a strange coincidence we arrived on the afternoon of October 25th at the height of the Occupy protests, during which Scott Olsen was accidentally injured. After the assembly was dispersed on the 26th this group moved through downtown Oakland.
Lunch was served in front of the downtown
federal building.
