New Chief of Oakland’s Department of Violence Prevention; Effort to Cancel Oakland’s Shotspotter Contract; Plus Berkeley Tenant Organizing

Oakland has a new chief of the department of violence prevention. Joining us is the new Chief, Holly Joshi.

Then, shotspotter may be on the chopping block in Oakland – as it is in several cities across the country. Joining us to discuss is Brian Hofer, the Executive Director of Secure Justice, a non-profit that advocates against state abuse of power, and for reduction in government and corporate overreach. He has also been the Chair of Oakland’s Privacy Advisory Commission since 2016.

Then, we spend some time talking with Leah Simon-Weisberg, Executive Director of the California Center for Movement Legal Services, in conversation about tenant organizing in Berkeley.

This week’s Resistance in Residence Artist is award winning and multi-nominated, Los Angeles-based actress, playwright and author, Robin Riker.
