Law & Disorder

Oakland Mayor and Council Election Results; State Terror Roundup; Plus Resistance in Residence Artist Shaun Blaney

We start today’s show with our recurring segment the State Terror Roundup.

Then, Oakland had a special election this week. We’ll spend most of the hour speaking about the results of the three items on the ballot: A new mayor, a new District 2 City Councilmember, and Measure A. We’ll speak with Nikki Fortunato-Bas, the Alameda County District 5 Supervisor and a former District 2 Oakland City Councilmember, as well as Chaney Turner, the Integrated Voter Engagement Director with Oakland Rising Action, and Saabir Lockett, the Deputy Director of Civic Engagement at EBASE and East Bay Action

Our Resistance in Residence Artist this week is Northern Irish actor Shaun Blaney.

Shaun portrays Gerry Conlan in the production of In The Name Of The Sun, which will see its US premier at the San Francisco International Arts Festival in early May. More info: https://www.sfiaf.org/2025_green_shoot_productions
